I've highlighted the most important part of a community as the FSF.
You are confusing "community" with party to whom you are distributing to. if you modified a gpl licensed program and sold it to a client - you would not be in violation of the gpl if you gave them the modified source code with the gpl license notice. You dont have to give the modifcations back to the "community" if you dont want, the license gives you the freedom to do that.
