Communism is a society without social classes, money, or a state.
Feel free to name one so-called communist country that implemented that.
The eastern block was as communist as North Korea is democratic.
They did however socialize ownership of factories etc, so they did have an authoritarian form of socialism.
Name a real-world implementation of communism that either isn’t Marxist–Lenninist, or one that is and has moved beyond the “dictatorship of the proletariat” stage. I’ll be waiting.
I think we may be on the same page here about communism.
Nothing we’ve seen so far is communism, and the current trajectory of Marxist–Lenninist states are sliding more towards dictatorships with socialist aspects than actual communism.
“Communism but not like that. Or that. Or that. Or….”
