Having a one party state is not anti-democratic. What matters is what you can vote on, which the Soviet system allowed for moreso than liberal democracy.
Again, hierarchy and managers are not against Marxism, nor is direct worker self management Marxism.
I highly recommend reading Why do Marxists fail to bring about the "Worker's Paradise?", it's an excellent article on economic democracy with respect to Historical Materialism.
I literally linked you a wikipedia article, I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. There's workplace democracy in China, and public property is entitely state planned. I wish you'd throw me a bone here we can work with, you just denied everything outright.
I really implore you to have an open mind, and again, read Marx regarding Historical and Dialectical Materialism. Elementary Principles of Philosophy is my personal favorite overview of the concepts.
