Is communism democratic

Answer 1

This is a defunct question. Going by the theory of each, both elect leaders and both should be fair. However in practice communistic states turn out to be more like dictatorships.

What the question should be is comparing Communism with Capitalism. Again, in theory Communism is fair, whereas Capitalism is rich people controlling society and paying workers, the workers then spending the money on the products the company owners manufacture. But Communism in practice is rarely fair, with no-one getting enough save a few in the leaders favor, and the leader themselves.

Answer 2

Yes, Communism is the most democratic ideology in terms of political, economical & social life. In political side, communism advocates that the everyone (regardless of family, gender, race, work & income) are the government that everyone decides for the state, every voices & elections are important & free & comments, suggestions & criticism are the welcoming fuel to make a government more democratic & improves its government, in which is identical to direct democracy, thus the leadership are a collective leadership. In economical aspect, communism is a variant of democracy's economic counterpart, socialism. Communism abolishes all private property & make it a common & collective ownership of the masses, higher taxes for the rich while lower taxes for the poor, education & hospitalization are for free, thus no one will die due to sickness bec. left untreated, in education, incoming students are choosing the course they want to study to prepare work work after graduation, the government will provide work for everyone based of a person's interest, skill & college degree. It also provides free housing, electricity & water, basic needs (such as food, clothing & shoes) are affordable. Therfore regardless if there are rich people, at least no one is living under overty. In social aspaec of communism, EVERYONE IS EQUAL, everone has the right to make oneself's decisions, fixed marriage are illegal, social hierarchy are abolished, discrimination & racism are banned.

Answer 3

A number of Communist regimes fell and were replaced by democracies in the late 1980s and early 1990s, which occurred because of the fall of the Soviet Union. Most Soviet Satellite countries, such as the Eastern bloc (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria) and Mongolia in Central Asia have successfully transitioned to capitalist democracies. With the exception of the Baltic former Soviet Republics (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania), which also transitioned well to democracies, the former Soviet Republics did not transition well to democracy. Most are governed by strongmen who rule as autocrats, with Putin's Russia, Berdimuhamedow's Turkmenistan, and Karimov's Uzbekistan being among the most notorious.

However, a number of Communist regimes did not fall at all. China, North Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, and Laos all remain Communist, and there is serious discussion as to whether Cambodia is a Monarchy-Communist hybrid.
