Nothing is more wholly frustrating that people who are completely convinced they perfectly understand Marx while clearly not having read or absorbed any of it. Then thinking that it's okay to be adamantly ignorant because they feel Marxists don't understand capitalism at all, or their specific worldview involving capitalism. When really understanding the average internet dweeb's idea of capitalism is so much easier than truly comprehending the complete set of Marx's works. And even if you only understand a little bit of Marx it's so apparent that everyone who makes hay by criticizing him has no understanding at all. Memes have completely replaced epistemology for so many people.
We're talking about AnCaps. They haven't even understood that capitalism thing that they love so much, i don't expect them to have an understanding of anything besides the difference between a fedora and a trilby.
are they not aware that means of production have to be employed by labor

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Marx.
