the original french Libertarians were anarcho-communist types.
The american marketfetishists that stole the name think of the "free" market as the pinnacle of freedom.
Communists and most anarchists consider the market as bad and coercive as any living/breathing dictator.
However, communists are willing to sacrifice the state for the good of the people. Fascists are willing to sacrifice humans for the good of the nation.
So real opposite extreme of Communism depends on what spectrum you are looking at
