Sounds kind of silly here. Capitalist governments specifically fight to prevent communism from taking hold. The question is do they turn into dictatorships on their own, or do they turn into dictatorships because outside entities are pushing them into more desperate levels. All governments when they are being threatened by another nation turn authoritarian.
I don't think anyones arguing outside nations didn't do major actions towards sabotaging every attempted communist society. To me that's a bit like saying homosexuality is bad because of the high rate of suicide among the LGBT. Ignoring of course that it's not being LGBT that makes you suicidal, but the actions of people on them.
