Thanks for arguing for my point: Communism was a beautiful theoretical idea which was implemented by humans and therefore was a miserable fuckup in the end. I still think the concept is really interesting, but I can't see a working implementation as soon as there are humans who would want to be leaders in such regimes. I don't see a connection with free speech here, anyway.
