Communism never began, only a tyranny that was called communism.

Granted, there has seldom been "true" communism.  Maybe a few communities for a short time here and there.  Never a government. 

While I dislike every government that ever called itself "communist", the concept is valid.  I expect it is even harder to keep than democracy, though.
