It’s the Paleo Communists (Leninists) vs the Fabian Socialists. And yes, Russia is still Communist.
It's a mixed market economy. Widespread privatization but with central government control over everything. Like china. Like Britain. Like Germany. Like Ukraine. Like the banana republic of the United States. All are more akin to fascist.
So. No. russia is not communist, but if you want a free market, go to Taiwan or Switzerland.
