The comment your replying to (or meant to) has to be being purposely dense. There is obviously a difference between being a communist, having a communist party take power, and "achieving" communism. No one with a brain would think the OOP was talking about the last use of the word in that sentence.

It's a common "dumb guy that thinks they're being smart" take because they haven't actually ever read a book in their life. They just read the definition of communism once.
