      Do you belive that in a communist country everything is owned by the state? If so, I urge you to look up communism again.

          And what are those existent communist countries? The ones that come the closest are China, Vietnam, cubs, Laos, North Korea. But none if them is there yet. https://www.britannica.com/question/Which-countries-are-communist

              Well in the examples I gave only in north Korea everything is controlled by the state. So your point is irrelevant.

                  Confiscation of private property as a criterion for communism is also new to me.

                  Is the Taliban communistic?

      Because capitalism with state protection is not capitalism I guess.

      In each, we’re talking about capitalism with the caveat that the owners of the country want a kickback too, and in return local capitalists are protected from foreign capitalists. Vladimir Putin owns Russia, the CCP owns China. In neither case does capital belong to “the people” as a whole.
