In case you have trouble with reading, my assertion was that a powerful state was not an /essential/ part of communism, not that it was incompatible with communism. Whether communism existed in the so called "2nd world" is neither here nor there because we are not facing the same conditions they were, and whatever system that's born from expropriating capitalists in developed countries would be quite different from that born of peasants expropriating landlords in semi-feudal countries.
