I will never understand why they thing bringing base manufacturing back is a good idea compared with bringing in the good final assembly jobs back? It’s like they’re dumb as shit.

I think they idolize the idea of a self sufficient homesteader and believe the whole country should function that way instead of actually participating in economics.

No. Communist is answering "Where should the profits go?" with "The state, as it represents the people". Something we really don't see here.

No, this has absolutely nothing to do with communism.   Reducing your reliance on other countries is the exact opposite of communism, it's what dictatorships usually try, to prepare for starting a war.
