In my experience you can't have one without the other. To be a communist you need to completely ignore the issues with it. Communism isn't successful without prohibiting the spread of information. Even then it breaks down after a few decades. It is more about hiding the state of things and crushing descent.

I'm far from a noted communist and I'm pretty sure none of those things are definitionally related to communism. Why would a diminishing of public property necessitate prohibiting the spread of information?
