There's really no such thing as a purely ionic bond. Even Cesium and Fluorine form bonds that have a non-zero amount of covalent character to them. Just like there's no such thing as a naked proton in the liquid or solid phases.

More like every molecule has a somewhat communism bond.

PS: also don't forget to take your daily dosage of Vitamin C
