A lot of times the facial hair is a communication, like a uniform.
Well my husband of 32 years has been wearing a beard since he got out of the AF and he’s about as far from a commie as one can get. My social circle is made up of educated, conservative people and many of the men wear beards.
This arguement is like saying because one wears red one is a communist. Lenin wore ‘chin pubes’, not a full beard. Stalin wore his famous moustache, Trotsky wore ‘chin pubes’, the communist leaders from Beria to Gorbechev have been clean shaven.
If having a beard is a communication of commie leanings, my church is in trouble. /s
