You could force him to read Piketty's Capital at gunpoint and I doubt he'd sincerely budge on his position.
"Marx would have been neoliberal because the future is so great right now!" is a product of bullshit hard wired into people's brains. Brazil Good, Venezuela Bad, because Gomunism. Japan Good, China Bad, because Gomunism. Florida Good, Cuba Bad, because Gomunism. No, nothing you say will never change my mind.
Jokes aside, this dude might just need a couple stats about people living paycheck to paycheck, homeless rates, starvation, etc to give in
I think he needs a good punch in the dick.
I propose a "we can do this the easy way or the hard way" routine.
Good vocel cop/bad vocel cop
