Quite the contrary. Communists understood that only labour creates value, and education gives more value providing opportunities to more sophisticated labour, aka technology, inventions. This is why they gave housing for free to everyone agreed to provide honest labour within the system. The system had flaws, was not free from corruption, but it worked. My mom spent 5 years in toxic plant, was awarded 3 bedroom flat in modern house for free. It allowed her to invest more into my education and give musical education to my brother.
