Only if you don't know what communism is : a stateless, classless, moneyless society.

Calling something that isn't that communism doesn't magically make it that, just like calling something (national) socialism doesn't make it that.

So please, do explain how massive corporations as an extension of the state fit in to actual communism. (I won't wait)

I know I am going to come under fire for this, but when have you last seen true communism?

Of course not, because it's never been done. That's why we need to keep trying again and again instead of accepting that perhaps it's impossible because it's been tried countless of times and cost countless lives and still never succeeded. /s
