    Theres like lines about that I would believe. How would the government define whose communist, as there are many civilians who come from communist countries and are known to be very conservative (e.g Cubans)

      I think strictly speaking it's party membership that would reason for inadmissibility, but I suspect that a "vibes" based approach might be in use, due to the possible difficulty in figuring out who exactly is a member.

      They broadly don't. I have friends that immigrated to the United States whose parents are communist party members back in China.

        Hence why I dont think that law really enforced unless you were obviously communist (e.g big name politician or figurehead).

        Immigration is extremely lax on actually verifying identities of people (e.g some people sponsored for immigration gave it to a reletive or a friend if they chose to ultimately stay in their respective country)
