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?

Unfortunately for you, most implementations have a government

[-] dan@sffa.community 1 points 1 year ago

Not all of them. You can look at Rojava for example

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.
