    There can be no communist government. Communism is a collaboration of communities, not a single government. Just as like as Lemmy itself.

      I understand that theory, but like I asked: How does that work in real life? Does there not have to be a governing body to ensure that everyone/every community adheres to the communist philosophy?

        On top of that, how does that not just end up as a state owned economy identical to far right fascism in practice? You know… like when the Soviets ended up that way?

        There are governments run by communists but I don’t believe any of them actually claim to have achieved a communist society. For example, Vietnam is run by communists who describe their system as a socialist oriented market economy.
