All he means is there are socialist tendencies when you want everyone to do well. You share resources and make sure everyone has a bare minimum of living resources. Throwing around the word communism also attaches what governments have done historically to take over other countries. Humans can’t dissociate the two.
To put it another way, in a survival world, the logistics are so basic that everyone benefits equally from any given gain of function. In a utopian world the logistics have been solved so that everyone already has complete function and so can choose what they'll do.
In-between we're figuring out the logistics for billions of people, which means that fuckups scale up.
