Well if you think ‘because they say so’ is reason enough there’s not really any further to go here I don’t think. I was hoping you’d have a more interesting answer about how the economy is structured or how resources are distributed. It looks more like an authoritarian flavour of capitalism to me but I’m no politics expert so I only have a layman’s view, more than happy to be corrected.
Those 2 are literally capitalist countries. Also tankies are the ones who commonly say China is not capitalist.

They have private companies and a market economy, how is that a communist economy exactly ?
If your only argument for saying they’re communist is because they said so, then you must also believe that north korea is a democracy right ?
You’re correct. China, I believe I heard, also has more billionaires per capita than the US. Don’t quote me on that, I’m not entirely sure.
The DPRK “identifies” as “democratic” - so by your logic you should just swallow that hook, line and sinker, too, eh?
Oh, boy… are you in for a surprise - Lenin himself dubbed the fledgling USSR as “state capitalist”.
Nothing new about it, Clyde.
Every one of your arguments have been blown out of the water with next-to zero effort… and yet you still pretend you’re in the game.
Russia is very capitalist; like how exactly are they communist at all??
