btw I just experienced the perfect counter to this - try talking about communism in the comments on a leftist or anti-capitalist tiktok with a 100 character limit and you'll very quickly see the limits.
"Oh so you just want everything stolen from people then."
"Capitalism is more fair than socialism and Communism"
Please counter those statements in a meaningful way in 100 characters.
I would say left ideas persist because there are many, many, many examples of well-constructed, long-form writing that you can point people to if they actually show interest in learning from short word count interactions.

"Yeah but the owners won't have an incentive to keep the business open if they don't make money"
"My retirement is in the stock market so if Bezos cashes out then other people will and I'll lose everything"
This is shit I see again and again when I try to argue the same points your making. It doesn't work in short form.
