Ah, the American freedom of thought... Communism not allowed. Any other political party or group is allowed, and could have a platform. There are a lot of foreign media allowed there. Internally even KKK is allowed. But who were really persecuted were groups like the Black Panthers, which until nowadays have members kept as political prisoners.

But if there were a chance for them to became popular, then FBI would restart the pogroms from McCarthyist era. There are still Black Panther members jailed and kept in solitary confinement because authorities are afraid that they could talk with other inmates and convince them of their ideology.
