They killed 20 million Russians in the Bolshevik revolution just a decade earlier. There were attempts by the Communists to take over in Germany also so there was a lot of fear I'm sure.
There was a concerted effort by the International Communists to take over just about every country in Europe, in that time. Spain almost fell to it. Italy almost fell to it. Britain almost fell to it.
In Germany, this attack was deep and wide and made all-the-more-dangerous by Germany's proximity to the USSR, and by the draconian measures that the bankers and France/UK inflicted on Germany post-WWI. Germans were starving, prostituting themselves for food, losing property the family had owned for generations, etc.
