PC you are very confused. This appears to be due to you not understanding perspective and context in writings.
For example, if someone says Gould was "dedicated to using Marx's uniquely valuable contributions…to study conditions today and possibilities for transcending capitalism and building an emancipatory society" that does not mean Gould was a communist. It means he saw some contributions to political science that could be derived from Marx's contributions. It means the guy wanted to propose ways for society to maturate beyond where it was at the time, said capitalism, to some future state called an emancipatory society. I suspect you don't know what emancipatory society means. The literal translation is a society where a person can obtain autonomy and is free from domination. IOW a free society also free from domination by any group be they the mob, monopolies, oligopolies, and governments. That does not sound like communism at all.
