You clearly are blinded by some weird abject and irrational fear of the word "communist". I can't think of any country on earth right now that actually fits the definition of communist.
It is said that most of the Chinese Politburo are billionaires. I have no way of verifying this tidbit, of course, but it's pretty obvious that there is a vigorous exercise of capitalism going on there.
If you have the names of the members of the Chinese Politboro, properly the Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party, you can look up their net worths on the Internet.
Well, people can always throw words around heedlessly. Frequently, words supposedly denoting political, philosophical, or moral ideas often wind up being understood or promoted as the opposite of the original definition.

You clearly have never read The Communist Manifesto unless you failed to understand.

Most Congresscritters are millionaires.

Yes a true communist state would have no billionaires but China has countless.
That is because you have never learned what distinguishes communism from any other ism.
I learned all about it from Buford T Justice

You think that was a documentary?
Better than most. Hits the mark re many things American perfectly.
You disagree with his communism definition?
😆 Says you. Afraid I've learned way more during my lifetime than you have.
