What is the perspective on communism?

definition
"Communism as an ideology is a cage that confines the spirit, while true communes celebrate the richness of human connection, allowing us to live nonpossessively and creatively in harmony."
According to Osho, communism as an “ism” is dangerous because every ideology solidifies life into dogma. He rejects communism but champions communes—living together nonpossessively, creatively, and meditatively while honoring each person’s space. Communes replace the outdated family, offer richer human variety, heal psychological fixations, and enable true communion (heart-to-heart) beyond mere communication.
Skip rigid -isms; live in a loving shared community where people keep their freedom and children learn from many caring adults.
