Politics and Economics are interrelated, and you cannot genuinely separate them. That’s even why Marx studied Political Economy, not just Economics.
Further, Socialist states run by Communists are democratic, just in a very different manner. Here’s a diagram of how Soviet elections were handled, as an example:
I never said that they aren’t interconnected, i just said that it is possible to have a communist democratic party. If the political system is broken then no matter good how an economic system is it will fail
All Communist parties practice Democratic Centralism, and all AES states run by Communists have some form of socialist democracy. I am not sure what you are trying to say by saying it’s “possible,” rather than simply being possible, it’s by far the established norm. When you say “democracy,” do you mean the specific, say, US form of democracy, or the ability for the citizenry to have legitimate control over policy?
That’s why any system needs actual checks and balances. Ones that fully come back to the people, not just make more corruptable systems like the US has.
Communism is an economic concept not political. Technically it is possible to have a democratic communist country
Marx literally calls for a genocide in his manifesto. It might not be political in your view, but communism is inherently a genocide.
No, he did not.
Please quote that part.

According to social media, literally everything is politics.
I generally agree.

If the strong government is democratically elected and represent the will of the people nothing wrong with that
Power corrupts and corruption leads to authoritarianism. The thing happening in america right now is a perfect example.
