Basically since it's a pan-leftist region and It depends on what you understand as Communism.
1st point is that since it's a pan-leftist region, you can find Social democrats, Democratic Socialists (There is a difference for all you who dare say they are the same. I mean you all rightists.) Eurocommunists, Revolutionary marxists, Marxists leninists, Left communists, State Socialists, Dengists (for Whatever reason...) You Name It.
And 2nd, let's clear out what Communism is.
If we were to trust Wikipedia, It's a philisophical, social, economic and Political ideology whose goal is the establishment of a Communist society - A socioeconomic order based on the idea of common ownership of the means of production.
If we were to trust the Republican Party (USA) it's a totalitarian ideology which Can never be achieved but is in Control of Europe and other countries which have to be liberated. (My honest opinion about their definition is just XD.)
And That's all.
Have a good day.
(Edit: the definition of Communism by the Republicans or any rightist party is Not even wrong but utterly ridiculous. There are of course many other definitions but I just wanted to show that one in particular.

One can argue that Dengism is just China’s modern version of Lenin’s NEP.

It's essential to combine Marxism-Leninism with the reality of China.

It's a coincidence to me that I run into a post about pizza here, considering the fact that I am getting pizza! (From Pizza Hut, of course.)

It pleases me deeply that he was able to live to a ripe old age in peace- despite hundreds upon hundreds of CIA assassination attempts and millions of dollars spent trying to overthrow/kill him.

An interesting advanced critique and analysis of the USSR coming from a Trotskyist! It is interesting to see how our views are pretty similar yet diverge in some points - such as Stalin!

I kinda agree with Trotsky's analysis on bureaucrats that they represent a mid-wege between the working class, even if my knowledge is murky, that even if they come from the working class due to their position it makes them detached from it. I also agree that the rightward shift of the USSR to revisionism was kinda inevitable (sorta). Though I emphasize more its internal aspects such as the retention of the bourgouisie and petty-bourgousie class in managerial and technical positions and the retention of capitalist relations of labor as a mass base for revisionism even in Lenin and Stalin's prime. I believe that China had showed another way for a socialist DoTP to preserve in light of global isolationism, similar to Stalin's Socialism in One Country.

I believe that Stalin represented the last proletarian leader of the USSR (so my view of him is more positive). And he seemed to be aware of the direction the USSR is heading and tried to reverse it several times, such as in the Yezhovschina/Great Purge even if his methods are crude, excessive or theoretically wrong. I think though that the real turn to revisionism occurred after Stalin's death.

You might be interested in Mao's critique of Stalin and the post-Stalinist USSR, which kinda says some similar things to Trotsky's critique but from a non-Trotskyist POV. (FYI, I am Maoist)

okay

The NEP doesn't include arresting communists or (de-facto) denying class struggle, nor would it let the dictatorship of the proletariat give way to bureaucratic capitalism.

Notes on recent WA Resolution?

This is a slander of Lenin.Lenin advocated: "One step back, two steps forward."Lenin's new economic policy is only a stopgap before large-scale industrialization and the establishment of a planned economic system.It is a means of restoring the destruction of years of war.It is not comparable to the revisionist bureaucratic group stealing people's wealth and taking the path of bureaucratic capitalism.

Hi everybody. I decided to raise the economy a bit, and somehow accidentally got rid of the planned economy (state economy) and socialism. No one knows if it is possible to return them without issues?
