If everything is shared under communism, that would include political power. So that would make communism a direct democracy.

Does that sound like the nation's you have in mind?

If "in the sense being tankie" is not clear enough for you, I do not mean possible communism ideal, but I mean actually existing "communism", like in USSR, which, besides some social advantages, was a red authoritarism.
