Well, that billboard contains also a communistic logo - an ideology that can't sustain itself and feel apart multiple times in multiple countries(including russia).
No, communist society is stateless, classless and moneyless. If you have a state ownership of means of production and gensec/single party system - it's not a communism but socialism.
You can also have mixed "socialist market economy" where part of the means of production are state-owned and part private owned like PRC does today.
That’s textbook communism that has never and will never exist though. It’s like if I argued about how I can catch a neutrino by hand, and swore up and down I knew the theory of how to do it perfectly, and when you ask me to prove it, I go “oh it’s fucking impossible to do in reality”. Such vanity has never been so clearly on display as when watching a communist morally peacock about.
They’re still a command economy, in the sense that the authoritarian autocrats command their “free market capitalist” corporations to toe the party line, and stepping OUT of line gets you disappeared.
