I think people associate "communism" with "corrupt authoritarianism" and then associate UBI with "communism".

The same people also conflate "capitalism" with "democracy" and forget that it is actually possible to have the latter without the former.

Currently the scarily succesful (in terms of material gains) model seems to be capitalism without democracy.

Hundreds of millions died under attempts to impose communism. Yes, it is scary.
