Real communist logic is that these governments were supposed to be temporary. They're supposed to exist to transition into actual communism, where the people control the state and own the means of production, not a dictatorship. The states that call themselves communist but have a dictator are, at best, the same as a caterpillar calling itself a butterfly. Maybe it aspires to be that, but it isn't yet, and may never be.

400-500 years is technically temporary.
