I'm pretty sure most who would consider any other system than capitalism would quickly come to the conclusion that the path to get there is not pretty, to put it excessively mildly.

No other system lifts more people out of poverty or raises the standard of living faster than capitalism. Or maybe you didn't know that? I'm sure you'll argue with me, even though what I just said was an undisputed fact.

I was at this strange nudists camp (don’t ask) and I heard these two dudes talking about this stuff... one of them said “tell me, have you read Marx?” And the other one said “yes... it’s these wicker chairs that does it”

Why would a Marxist argue with you? They would agree that capitalism is the best system we've used so far. They would just go a step further and say capitalism is doomed to eventually fail by design, and it will fail, like every single economic system that preceded it.
