If one is using "communism" as in actual Communist theory, then "government-assembly-directed-communism" doesn't make sense either -- that's, in that framework, socialism, communism is what you get after the state withers away.

If you are using "communism" in the usual sense anti-Communist speakers due -- referring to government structure typical of authoritarian regimes that have espouse Communism as an ideology -- then distinguishing "government-assembly-directed communism" vs. "communism" still doesn't make sense, as all such "communism" is, necessarily, directed by a government assembly.

So I don't think "legislative communism" makes much sense in any case.



Your last sentence was more or less my point, I just screwed it up with "more or less the opposite of legislative", which I admit is confused, but I was trying to say that the Prop wasn't being handed down by the government.
