The problem is it is a bait and switch, and people don’t like to be tricked, and will just return to their programming once they’ve found it out. I’ve had a lot of success informally discussing socialist concepts with people, never hiding it, just not outright stating it is “communist” and that works pretty well, not doing it as a “gotcha” but as regular navel gazing can help people slowly but surely become more class conscious. The main thing is that they have to do the legwork themselves.
People have suggested it a lot, haven’t seen anyone make it work yet. I’m not saying it’s impossible
