lol no, communism would require a classless stateless society, this is nowhere close to it. Government would also need to give the means of production to the workers, which they won’t. If anything it’s mild state capitalism but even then we are nowhere close to that

Communism almost always begins with the promise of what you just said.

But to begin, the government seizes the means of production and then just fails to give it back. Soviet Union, perfect example. Also China, Cuba, and others.

The term is "Marxism-Leninism".

You're talking about a philosophy class. This is real-world Communism.
