And this is the problem for Marxists. Engels wrote a whole book[1] on how the family destroyed the ideal prehistoric communism[2] by accumulating property to pass to the next generations. This created classes and the state.
Originally this was just a trivia and the principal tool of reaching communism has been the revolutionary overthrowing of the bourgeois state. But in late 20th century, after many of these revolutions failing to spread worldwide, they naturally want to explore other ways to achieve communism, including targeting the root cause of the state.
