They want all those things?

Doubtful, and most of them probably aren't Communists and anti-Semites either, but that's Muffin for you.

Maybe most of them are not really Communists, but history shows that it's easy enough for Communists to hijack a liberty/equality movement.

There's a discrepancy between "the protesters are Communnists" and "there's a possibility of Communists hijacking OWS."
