No, communism really is dying.

It is extremely doubtful that communism can possibly survive beyond Fidel Castro in Cuba.
I have already written recently as to how China's version is seemingly doomed.
Having now visited both Nha Trang and Saigon, I feel that the signs are plentiful that Vietnam is taking the same route.
Communism is an artificial construct which cannot succeed as it is based on an optimistic view of mankind in direct contradiction to the teaching of The Scriptures.
