No, they weren't communist by their own claims. They were social dictatorship looking to bring about the conditions for communism.
By precisely the same logic, the USA isn't truly capitalist, as there's no free market! Federal regulations hinder a true capitalist utopia, and so the USA is just a republic trying to establish the conditions of true capitalism. That's bullshit and you know it. Tell any card-carrying member of the Communist Party of China that they aren't communist, and let me know how that goes for you.
