Funny thing is; so long as you don't say 'Capitalism' or use recognizable Communist rhetoric and just describe that it's Capitalism then they'll nod along in agreement.

Say it's "malevolent resource management" that shows a grand disregard for the people in such a way that it's obvious to them, even if they wouldn't put their finger to it, and they'll agree. Just getting them to connect the dots afterword that how we manage resources is capitalism and it is actively opposed to their wellbeing is the hard part.
