I don't know what Communism is 'cos I was brought up and indocrinated in the 1980's :P
Seriously, the Soviet Union was no more communist than the 'West' is democratic... do capitalism and democracy sit hand in hand?
Russia, China and Cuba is all that comes to mind.

But... The entire scotsman fallacy depends on the fact that the culprits are 100% certainly scotsmen, since they were born in Scotland.
How do you prove that someone is a communist? By examining his or her ideologies and actions. If they do not match, then they are not a communist.
You can't say "But he's a communist despite the fact that he does things no communist would do", because that is what defines a communist in the first place.
