In Latin America the word has been widely adopted by leftist movements to mean someone who participates in a Commune, and /or a militant of a Communist party.
It does not always mean rebel, although that's one meaning that can be assigned to the word, mainly by the press.
Without context, therefore, it's impossible to be sure about what the word you say may really mean.
Comunero means rebel. Several uprisings against the government are linked to comuneros.
