- dragonwriter 9y agoIf by Communism you mean Leninist vanguardism, then, if not “exactly the case”, it's at least consistent with the theory. If you mean the system described by Marx and Engels, then, no, it's directly contrary to the theory. If you mean some other Communist theory, well, maybe, but probably not.
