Communism is a moneyless, classless, stateless society.
Neither China nor Cuba are communist.
The only “luxuries” capitalism provides are extreme disparity, environmental destruction, wage slavery, an inefficient and wasteful distribution of resources, and the assured extinction of humanity - but I guess it does provide countless variations of similar sugar water, mobile phones, and branded clothing.
May I interest you in the socialism of the norse?
I hear they're very good places to be.
And these variations spark competition, which leads to faster development and price competitions. If no one was competing with one another there would be need to inovate, so things like phones would most likely not exist yet let alone ever exist.
