There's this reactionary trope that Communism is just something teenagers who have never had real jobs are into, that somehow the basement-dwelling children of 1st world small business owners are able to easily blaze through all The Manifesto, Grundrisse, Anti-Duhring, German ideology, All 3 volumes of Das Kapital, All 3 volumes of Theories of Surplus Value, etc. etc. etc. before they're old enough to drink, and then after getting an associates degree abandon it because they learned to adult... it's patently absurd. If anything the type of people in question don't even begin to question Capitalism until they're well into their 20s and sufficiently addled with student loan debt and long hours and a bleaker future than their parents.
