In a communist non-state area, who enforces environmental protections? Who punishes rapists and murderers without being he said she said? Who prevents workplaces from unsafe working habits? Who assures buildings are up to code? Those are realistic issues, that don't stop magically when you do away with a class system. Doing away with a class system will improve them, but not eliminate them.
Administration and other protections that don't involve things like oppressive police forces. Marxists don't lump all administration into the state when we talk about statelessness.
