You are adding far too much of your own bullshit to my comment.
If communism is stateless what is a communist government?
It's not bullshit, it's a question that needs fucking answered.
If there is no state, what entity operates to solve the issues that the state usually manages as well as the new functions needed to ensure the economy is divided and serving the people?
Whatever the fuck you want to call that thing that serves that purpose, explain to me how it will be implemented in such a way as to differentiate it from the concept of a government or state?
The person you replied to is not "adding their own bullshit", it's a fair question. If you have separate communities, they will all start to go in their own direction. Some of them might adopt capitalist behaviors, some of them feudalist behavior, etc. So then you get the following issue: You need a governing body or some sort of equivalent to make sure that the separate communities adhere to the same philosophy (at least in broad lines). Then the question arises, how will this be made to work? Do you instate a governing body?
