In short, thank God I'm no longer a teenager. It's a lot easier to say that capitalism works but just needs to be regulated better, when all the adults around you seem composed, you have most of your needs met, and you get a satisfactory amount of treats, compared to when you're actually placed in the context of needing to sell your labor power for real to have your needs met. And when that's your belief, that capitalism "works", it's a lot easier to just take party branding at face value, take a quiz or two, and quickly skim through some Wikipedia articles, and treat casting a ballot essentially like throwing ¥5 into the offering box at a Shinto shrine: bow, bow, clap, clap, "May climate change be solved and may intellectual property be abolished and probably some other stuff too."
