This community is left, not neoliberal. I’m an anarcho-syndicalist. We have anarchists, socialists, anticapitalists, and more. Just because we don’t fit the US political spectrum of neoliberal to fascist, doesn’t mean we’re all communists.
Communism isn’t the only alternative to capitalism. For example, a system where all enterprises are controlled by the people that work in them, the means of production is socially owned and land and natural resources are commonly owned would also be a postcapitalist system
Is there a reason that only a moneyless society may be described as communist?
Is the distinction relevant, given that any abolition of money would entail gradual evolution by many smaller and weakly related changes, between the present and such a time?
Do you have a point or are you just nitpicking?
I think the point is that capitalism may be wonderfully humane, as long as it is confined within a mental box, and never touched by daylight.
I think you misnamed this community. It’s spelled “Communism”.

What would you call such a system?
Economic democracy
Is communism not a movement based on the aspiration to achieve economic democracy?
The system I described is not moneyless
