There's never be a full communist or capitalist society. What wears arguing over how far towards either we should go. Also, FYI for those that don't know The USSR and China are not communist. Both are/were dictatorships that call themselves communist.
The problem is that you won't ever get a full communist country, at least not for a very, VERY long time, because you always get those few fartweasels who end up hijacking it and turning it into a dictatorship. You need to eliminate that problem first, and with how the world is sliding into fascism, it doesn't look like we're any where near close to solving that dilemma
Read 'State and Revolution' by Lenin. It's quite short and not that bad a read. Addresses exactly what you are talking about.
I thought I was still on Lemmy.world and was wondering why this thread was going so hard on theory. Carry on.
