Free software is about building a society more strongly based on individual rights. At least Marxism-Leninism certainly isn’t about that
I suggest you read some Marxist literature. Marxism has become a bad word in the West because it undermines exploitation under capitalism. But everything Marx and Lenin espoused was based on improving the rights of individuals (you could make a convincing argument that the structure of the Soviet Union was incapable of accomplishing that goal, but that it got closer than anything American capitalism has been able to).
My personal rec is State and Revolution by Lenin. It’s short and easy to read.
