Specifically, what arguments fail (that support capitalism) due to faulty evidence, misunderstanding of capitalism, lack of knowledge regarding Marxism, etc.?

Probably not the most, but:

“Capitalists are job creators.”

The jobs will exist with or without them.

    I think it's stupid as much as anyone who's not gen Z, but to claim it's not real because it's not something I can understand is a little boomer-like. Guess we're doing the whole "everything from my childhood is how it should be and the previous/next generations are stupid/misguided if they disagree" shtick.
