Communism/socialism requires some mechanism to compel cooperation with the collective’s objectives. The greater the degree of central planning, the greater the authoritarianism required to implement it. When you reach a level of centralization sufficient to justify the “communism” label, you’re well into the “authoritarian” quadrants.
