Yes, yes they should.
No! That's ridiculous.

Well first of all that is just one branch of communism but putting that aside its equally the part of the state goal of Democracy to allow representation and a voice to everyone. Its sort of a battle of ideologies and both are convinced that theirs would win in a fair battle. Basically it would go against the foundations of Democracy as well as its stated goals to forbid communism from participating just because you are afraid of losing.
They do that because democracy would is turning in a cycle in Montesquieu's theory actually. they should be like anarchism but never practice. I think should we really need so much democracy? there are system that we can do above the function of government

Should they? Of course. Would they? No. Because like you said it don't really follow democracy. However socialism would because that's a much more democratic based way of doing it.
Socialism been more alike to what Marx would actually agree with if alive anyway.
What ''democracy'', I wonder.
Are we talking about the established small community of those with power?
I'd like to remind everyone about that fiction of ''freedom of speech'' ...
so would it not be counter intuitive to allow only SOME thoughts, and not the others?
If communism is such a threat to ''democracy'' - it would be obvious, and as a consequence no one (or not enough) people would give it a vote.
What are 'you' scared about? ... to have been wrong after all?
No, that's called sedition, and the US (along with a whole mess of other countries) have laws against that crap. You don't get to participate as a valid political party with the sole goal of overthrowing the US Gov't.
Yes. Even if they win, it doesn't mean they have the power to dissolve constitutions so easily. Communists winning doesn't mean they can implement communism. And if a lot of people are really on board with it, then it would be better for those who are not to secede from the nation and leave them to their fate.
Democracy doesn't work if people are prevented from voting. I know Republicans hate it when people vote, but everyone's opinion has to be heard for democracy to work correctly.
Democrats hate it when there are lots of different parties on the ballot though:

Democrats aren't the ones passing restrictive voting laws.
Sure they can elect which one gets to take it in the ass while they are sitting in GITMO waiting in line fore the firing squad.
Trump and his followers tried to overthrow the election, and they get to vote. So it's only fair that Communists can vote too. Besides, it's Russia that bars people from voting. Oh, Republicans states keep also keep people from voting.
There is an old adage that I feel applies here
You can vote your way into Socialism/Communism but you have to fight your way out.
No, not in America. But I think they should be allowed to vote in the UK.
that would then make them a democracy. :)
If you hide evil, the normies forget what it's.
It never worked and never will
No, ban them.
