Yes, OUTSIDE of the western bubble, the concept of right wing communists is pretty common. But as soon as westerners see it they're like "Why are you Communist AND criticizing the progressive left?"
Welcome to your first encounter with right/conservative/traditionalist or Nationalist Communism.
This is not a difficult thing to grasp:
Communism/Socialism are ECONOMIC as well as political philosophies. So you can have ECONOMIC views that can have either left or right POLITICAL philosophies attached.
Understand?
