That's literally nothing to do with communism and everything to do with iron fist rule under an authoritarian dictatorship.

It amazes me that the most vocal opponents of communism are the same people creaming their pants over handing their democracy over to the next Putin / Kim Jong Un, who have equally demonstrated the horrors of "democracy" when implemented in bad faith by sociopathic authoritarian dictators.
