By that stupid definition there's no true capitalism either, so what's your point?

Oh? Are there no countries with private ownership of industry?

Oh? Are there no countries with state ownership of industry?

If that's your criteria, then yes, there are both truly communist and truly capitalist countries.

Tell me which country claiming to be communist is not actually just a dictatorship with a veneer?
