    Communism involves, almost by definition, a centrally planned economy. That isn’t really possible without a state.

      Socialism can involve that (decentralised planning is possible)

      In communism - as there is no need for the suppression of reactionary classes anymore - the socialist state ceases to exist in terms of what we know as a “state”

      Administration of the economy can and will still exist in the post-“socialist world republic” (ie. communist) world

        A Leninist would tell you that the “state” is defined by class suppression

        A Leninist should perhaps open a dictionary instead of trying to redefine words.

        small groups that own and control their own means of production are capable of spontaneously organizing at a mass scale

        An Anarchist has clearly never worked in any group setting I’m familiar with.
