Americans as well as virtually all of the Western world's capitalist countries feared Lenin and the Bolsheviks because their stated goal was that of world revolution and communism.
Lenin felt that according to standard Marxian doctrine, one communist country could not survive amidst other capitalist countries. Lenin and the Bolsheviks posed a threat to every capitalist country because of their vowed intention to stir up worker unrest and foment communist revolutions in all non-communist countries.
Under Vladimir Lenin, the Bolsheviks began running Russia as a communist nation. There were serious food shortages and most farmers suffered from severe poverty. Later, Stalin beat Trotsky for party leadership and began violently defending his position, massacring civilians who protested and essentially ruling by fear and harsh punishments.
American's feared communism for how it could change their lifestyles and Lenin had the ability to bring communism to America with Russia's army.
