This doesn't make sense for various reasons, to me, but people's understanding of communism varies (I'm a Marxist). For one, both the belief in the History and the History comes after the very reality that makes history possible, and we construct History only after we look at the facts and analyze them. Thus, belief in History as if it's not a "moving target" (so to say) presupposes History before material grounds that generates history and thus is idealistic (so it's not Marxist). Second, Marxism is more about understanding the History and explaining mechanisms that make certain transitions (like social class or economic system) possible, like a physicist explains the universe, rather than fixing an understanding of the History and working from there (which is very problematic from a empiricist point of view). This can be contrasted with other understandings of "socialism" most importantly Anarchism which starts from a ground truth that originates from morality (e.g. it is bad to kill people).
