TikTok Explains Marxism: A Gen Z Perspective on Capitalism
A recent TikTok video by creator "💗 Bimbo University 💗" (@nikitadumptruck) has sparked online discussion about Marxism. The video, viewed over 50,000 times, presents a simplified explanation of Marxist theory, focusing on the exploitation of workers during the Industrial Revolution. Nikita, the video's creator, explains how the invention of the steam engine led to mass production and the rise of factories, resulting in workers facing long hours and low wages. "Capitalism really popped off in the 1800s," she explains, contrasting this with the pre-industrial era where most workers were self-employed. The video's informal style and use of humor, while potentially alienating some viewers, also makes complex economic concepts accessible to a wider audience. The video's success highlights the continued interest in Marxist ideas, particularly among younger generations.
