You're splitting hairs, no state can be communes by definition so it's a moot point. The term "communist country" is a colloquialism refers to centrally planned socialist states that have or had a stated goal to one day achieve communism. There's no point in getting riled up about it.

I honestly think that if every self-identified leftist decided to spend 365 contiguous days without voicing even one opinion that involves semantics, we would end up with a net benefit to the cause because it wouldn't be actively damaged for a change.
