You're mistaking communism/capitalism as economic systems for communism/capitalism as organizational structures. The latter is what the argument centers around.

It's been argued frequently that families and tech companies are structured like socialist states. Central planning, flatter structures, division of labor...I'm not starting down that thread or opening up that debate.

This only is not a capitalist structure but capitalism itself doesn't really offer any ideas about structure or governance beyond encouraging the free movement of capital.
