There are communists i n Finland at least. Not many and they have several political parties because tbey can't stand each other. The fall of USSR caused a lot of ideological splits.
Nowadays leftists are mainly in the "Nordic democracy seems awesome let's go back to that" and generally they are not in support of a communist state.
Meh, that's just the sales pitch.
It's basically analogous when a detatchment of Jehovas Witnesses come to your door showing you brightly coloured artwork of what heaven looks like.
"See how wonderful these Nordics are, we should be like them!" they say, so you sign up and only too late do you realise that you've joined a sadistic cult that controls every aspect of your life and enforces your conformity with dire threats against you and your family.
And the best bit is if you observe the people telling you that modern leftism is nothing like Stalin and Mao, and all that stuff is just [insert no true scotsman fallacy here], you begin to see those people display the same authoritarian tendecies, the desires to crush and silence dissenting viewpoints and the constant attempts to purge the ideologically impure.
It's fun to watch as an outsider, ideally I'd like to keep you all in an ant farm so I could watch it happen and not have you anywhere near anything with actual political influence.
