Communism does not require a state. What part of "a stateless, classless society" are you failing to grasp?
Even state authoritarian communist nations at least ostensibly seek a stateless, classless society. That's the whole fucking point.
And you don't need a state for those other things either. Do you think anarchists just throw shit at the wall and hope for the best? There are functioning anarchist communities which have no state. If they did, then they wouldn't be anarchist.
