I would say Marxism is one of many critiques of capitalism, not all of which are Marxist, but I'm wary of this "study Marxism in order to do capitalism more ethically" take (which the Warren campaign really exemplified). This isn't to dismiss the idea of a limited capitalist system as a potential path forward, but I'm not sure you're going to get that from Marxism--a broad and sometimes heterogeneous field of theory but one in which a pretty core tenant is that there's no reforming capitalism.
Maybe I’m just a fucking moron but do you mean tenet?

Not a typo, just a play on words leveraging how it is rent seeking that causes economic anxiety in America and not free market capitalism.

Of course its a stupid meme. Harry Potter is a tenant of boring progressivim. Marxists have read more than one book.
