No you can't facts and logic them. I guess my point was that you have to find an approach that they find agreeable or even interesting. Capital for all its strength will not resonate with most Econ nerds.
really you need to speak their language (supply and demand, invisible market forces, inalienable rights, shitting your pants, etcetera), you hook them in with the allure of FACTS AND LOGIC and then keep them their with a friendly discussion (and maybe some contemporary examples such as PS5 piracy - most of them are 15 year olds after all; they'll start to properly listen when you bring up an example that affects them). I think what will really do it though is showing some short extract of Marx which is incredibly relevant to some current event and say "OOoooOOoOoOh! SpoOoky Marx telling the future with his economic model. OoooOOOoooh!"
Yeah I agree, though I think Marx's ideas are more accessible than his writing and there are better places to start with people who grew up in McCarthyland.
