While communism has been at the pointy end of a very long propaganda skewer (and several regimes who claimed to be communist but were, in fact, just fascist), it is not inherently 'bad'. Economic systems don't have a moral compass of their own. They operate as guidelines for a society they govern. Whether a society is helped or harmed by an economic system like communism, or any other style of economy, depends on both the government and the people under it's care, and how they interact with each other.

This is not to say communism is free from bias, as it tends to promote more social openness and less privacy than other systems, which can be uncomfortable to many people.
