Communism will have administrators, planners, managers, etc so it keeps some form of authority and hierarchy, to be clear, it's just that these are a necessity for large-scale production and aren't classes.

so there is no one "at the top" "exploiting people at the bottom"

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yes, technically there is a top and a bottom, like an upper level administrator and a lower level worker, but this is not a relationship of exploitation just like it isn't your manager that exploits you under Capitalism, but the Business Owner(s).

under communism, there is no exploitation

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Correct. I am a Communist, I am just offering technical clarification that hierarchy exists under Communism, but not exploitation.
