Although Communist propaganda mentions the establishment of a "classless society", the actual aim is merely to justify violent revolution. The philosophical system called "[[dialectical materialism]]", often touted in the West as an ideal of how society should be, actually has no provision for making a transition from totalitarianism into a classless society.

Although Communist propaganda mentions the establishment of a "classless society", no Communist society has ever been classless; each has been dominated by a self appointed ''[[Nomenklatura]]''.  It officially prohibits one person from employing another, which leads to massive restrictions on personal freedom and economic shortages of every sort of goods and services.  It does not allow for savings and investment, the ownership of private property, such as homes or cars, or even fair payment of wages and labor.  Persons born in Communist countries have no citizenships rights.
