Well Karl Marx theorized that communism would arise after a long period of social evolution. Therefore they are just socially evolving and not capitalist and somehow not hypocrites.
Don’t forget, the development of a capitalist mode of production is only communist if you suppress all semblance of democracy first. Otherwise, it’s “Social fascism”
Do they claim marxism? Because communism can take other forms like State and Leninist. Nobody does marxist communism, there’a always some cult of personality, dictatorship, or tyrant at the helm and the people get lip service and the worst aspects of social policy designed to extract wealth and power. Instead of multiple corporation trying to control you and having to play nice to keep you vs the other guys, the State becomes the rotten corporation beholden to nobody and only has to offer enough service to keep everyone from revolting while holding them essentially hostage.
How can they claim Marxism when they have an investor class and stock markets?

“Oh no, not Marxism. We are Keynesian communists.”
Because if you dare contradict them there are consequences.
