Hegemony- Gramsci & Marxism

HEGEMONY CAN BE DEFINED AS A DOMINANCE OR INFLUNCENCE, AS OF ONE STATE OVER THE OTHER, ONE GOOD EXAMPLE WOULD BE OUR OWN GOVERNMENT (CONGRESS), HOW THIS PARTICULAR GROUP CAN PLACE, LAWS AND REGULATIONS ONTO PEOPLE OF LESS IMPORTANCE THEN THEMSELVES. GRAMSCI CALLS HEGEMONY "COMMON SENSE" AS TO SAY THAT THHIS SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD AUTOMATCIALLY JUST BE ABLE TO COMPRHEND TO. ANOTHER WORDS A TYPE OF RELIIGION THAT WE PRACTICE, WHEN SAYING THAT HEGEMONY HELPS IN THE SOCIAL AND CLASS STRUGGLES ONE THING THAT CAME TO MIND WHICH WAS WELFARE, HERE IS A PROGRAM CREATED TO FARTHER THE LIVES OF THOSE THAT ARE ECOMINCALLY AND SOICALLY DISPLACED FROM OTHERS, BUT THIS SYSTEM LIKE OTHERS SEEMS TO EITHER HOLD THEM BACK OR MOVE THEM UP. oNE QUESTION THAT CAME TO MIND FOR ME WAS DOES THIS EXAMPLE REALLY FALL INTO THE CATEORGORY OF HEGEMONY?
HEGEMONY FALLS RIGHT UNDER COMMUNISM ONLY BECAUSE OF IT'S CONTINUAL USE OF THE WORD DOMINANT WHICH IS DESCRIBED AS RULING ,GOVERNING,OR PREVAILING ALL THESE THINGS FALL RIGHT INTO THE FRAME OF A DICTATORSHIP, ANOTHER EXAMPLE SEEN ON PAGE7" LABOUR CLASS CONTROL IS BY TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE INTEREST OF OTHER GROUPS AND SOCIAL FORCES AND FINDING WAYS TO COMBINE THEM WITH IT'S OWN INTERESTS."
AFTER READING ANTONIO GRAMSCI IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT CAPITALISM AND COMMUNISM WHICH CAN BE DEFINED AS BEING TOTAL OPPOSITES, CAN STILL PROTRAY ALOT OF THE SAME CONTROLLING THEORIES IN THE WAY THEY PLACE LAWS AND REGULATION IN SOCIETY(PEOPLE) INTO A VERY STRICT AND STRANDARD WAY.
