Afaik this happened with every single instance of a communist country. Communism seems like a pretty good idea on the surface, but then why does it always become autocratic?

That’s a type. It’s what Russian Communism developed into. Not all Communist theory says you need to get rid of the state either, that’s Chinese Communism.
There’s even Communist theory that includes a thriving democracy.
Communism requires no state, no class, and no money. So, yes, all communist theory calls for the abolishment of the state.
Lmao. No.
That’s literally the definition of communism.
That’s the definition of one kind of communism.
Its literally the communism described by Marx, which, is, by nature, THE Definition of what communism is: https://web.archive.org/web/20090605001014/http://www.economictheories.org/2009/05/full-communism-ultimate-goal.html
This might be news to you but it’s not the mid to late 1800’s anymore. Marx is about as relevant as Locke.
Might be news to you, but the US’s “definition” of communism is about as relevent as the US’s definition of “leftism”…
So, yes, the definition of what “communism”… It’s best to go to the source of the word, and what the talked about it meaning, rather than Joe McCarthy.

And?
