To be fair, if you define "communism" purely by it's economics, you could actually have some odd ideologies that do not conflict. If there was a Soviet Union that wanted to keep the communist economics and trash the other aspects of it to become world's "Defender of Orthodoxy" while using a centralized economy and collective ownership of production, you could. It would be a similar story to National Bolshevism which lines up with communist economics, but takes cultural stances very similar to the nahtzees. We already have a monarchical form of communism, see North Korea.
