Every company should be owned by its employees

It's not authoritarian to outlaw unjust systems of power. I'm sure slave owners considered the US "authoritarian central planners" when they outlawed slavery. Doesn't make it wrong.

This is a non sequitur. I'm not saying central planning in general is bad. Companies are an example of central planning. So are families.

I'm saying communism is bad.

It is not a non sequitur! You called them "authoritarian central planners". Am I supposed to think you consider "authoritarian central planners" a totally neutral phrase with no connotations? It's telling you mention central planning in your response, when I objected to your use of authoritarian. If you had originally said "you will vote for <legislators> who will <implement laws>" your original comment is not quite as punchy, I think.
