I am not sure. I've never given it a concrete thought. Communism as a whole is very nebulous. I particularly like the socialist aspects and the welfare for all goals of communism. I like the dream of not having to work to survive.

But I do not like the planned economy aspect of it. I haven't seen anyone do planned economies well. This includes non communist countries that tried it. There's something to say about how it is impossible to create a complex web of plans that accurately and adequately account for humanity's ever-changing needs and wants. But economics is fairly complex and I have little authority over the subject matter to say anything with confidence.

Basically - Freemarket, multi-socialist-only party system, with four strong pillars of democracy acting as checks and balances, with welfare for all.

I don't identify as a communist in the conventional sense or any other particular label per say. But I do lean left.
