My friend the fact that there are only a few that own the means of production and the rest have to labor at their command is a power structure. Their ownership of the stuff required to make society function gives them power and they structured society in a way to enshrine their power.
How are the elites/leaders chosen in communism?
Democratically. People vote on their representatives, who in turn vote for the overall leadership.
You’re swimming in circles, buddy. Oligarchy is what you describe. How’s your free press doing in whatever communist country you’re holding up on a pedestal? I don’t want any of the systems currently in place, but arguing for communism is… idk, current GOP bot strategy?
