The problem is that if your political world view requires actual study in order to understand and promote, you're never going to get anywhere when it comes to affecting real change.
Two war-torn feudal backwaters transformed themselves into spacefaring superpowers in the span of a single human lifetime. History has shown that mass political education is possible and effective. I mean hell, we all have to be instructed as kids about the dangers of fire, and that works. I don't believe that educating people in Marxism is some sisyphean task any more than educating people in math. I think I can and has been done.
Do you control the public education system? Because until you do, you have to work with the educational background of the population you're given, not the one you want.
Edit: the replies to this comment that I can see are so nonsensical or make so many wrong assumptions that it's impossible to to even know where to start with them. I'll just leave my reaction at "????". If you, dear reader, want to explain to those people why their statements make no sense, I applaud your effort and the essay it will require.
If many millions of actual illiterate peasants who grew up with no school system at all can do it multiple times on different continents, it can absolutely be done here.

To be honest, people who didn't go to school were less propagandized against Marxism.
Obviously you do, and obviously the Bolsheviks and Maoists and the Cuban communists successfully did.
