I mean, I agree communism is an impossible dream. Socialism is much more obtainable
And by socialism you mean what? The Nordic model?
Sorry, I don't know how to put this more politely and still correctly: What the hell that crazy article?
Communism is just the natural result of a socialist society working through and resolving its contradictions. Socialism is of course necessary before communism, socialism is the transition between capitalism and communism. There's nothing about communism that's impossible or a dream.
Socialism is when the government does stuff. The more stuff it does, the more socialister it is. And when the government goes a whole lot of stuff, that's communism.
