tetrachloride doesn't know you can pray at the feet of young Lincoln and he'll tell you all about states' rights!
Read a book to learn about it? :geordi-no:
Visit where it was written to learn it? :geordi-yes:
Didnt Marx write the Manifesto in London or Paris or something because he was expelled from Prussia
Marx studied Lenin. Lenin studied under Hitler. Hitler studied under Stalin. Stalin studied under Mao. Mao studied under V*ush.
I would usually disagree with Marx, but now I want to visit his house because he wrote Mein Kampf
I think it helps us more than it hurts, tbh. Anyone who believes this is already far gone, but the more anti-communists fuck up even the most basic explanations of Marx, the more people might decide to look into it themselves...
Almost everyone I meet on a daily basis is exactly as far gone as you mean

Going to Germany is a thing most American students get to do! Amazing!
