Your AHC--have every country that implements Communism follow the exact model of the Stalinist USSR, Maoist China, or North Korea: industrial-scale genocide, literal dictator deification so that the leader is openly and officially worshiped as God as in the pharaonic kingdoms, and (if possible) dynastic rule. Use whatever PoDs/butterflies you like.
If every single Communist/Marxist country, from the initial revolution/conquest throughout its entire history as a Communist state is this extreme, fanatical, and savage, how does that affect the rest of the world? Is the Western world more determined than ever to stop it or is it utterly terrified and demoralized by it? Does Communism last longer or burn out faster? If the latter, what succeeds it? If Communist dictator-worship is a very widely-practiced religion do we see actual churches of Stalin/Mao/whoever in the West? If so, are they permitted to function and operate in a democratic society?
