No it isn't. Communism eliminates private property. E.G. Land ownership. (You lease land from the state)

It does not get rid of personal property. You're still allowed to own things. A phone, a car, books, anything that is movable; pretty much anything except land and maybe buildings.

I'm not even a fan of communism but this is just an ignorant misconception.

So in communism individuals own the means of production? Otherwise the farm is owned by the government.
