The whole premise of Marxism and variations is to remove individual rights and freedoms.

Question: have you ever read the Communist Manifesto?

But it is apparent from any reading of the Communist Manifesto that the premise of Marxism is not to remove individual rights and freedoms, regardless of how you think it works out in practice.

Marx literally calls for removal of rights and freedoms and openly calls for a genocide. Did YOU read his manifesto? One must be blind or delusional to think otherwise.

Read the Manifesto? Go refresh your memory.
