    I'm not a Marx fundamentalist, I have no idea what did he said. But friends from highschool that choose the last years specialization on "social sciences" (ie the people that later studied law, pedagogy, psychology, etc) had to read Das Kapital. In fucking highschool man. Then in college he was mentioned several times in very different subjects.

      Yeah, I grew up in the American south, so my high school experience was more like "Evolution is probably incorrect also you shouldn't be gay or Muslim"

      Doubt they had to read Das Kapital in high school, but they probably had to learn some stuff about it. It's more or less the same here. Even in economics departments there's some Marxists but in sociology, political science etc they are ubiquitous. Complete aversion to anything Marx related is an anglo thing.
