Look, I might not know much about this whole "reading and writing" thing, but I do know them smary pants billionaires do it all the time and they all ended up being child rapists so I sure and hell ain't gonna try to learn it.

People read communist theory because they want to find the root causes of their own and societal poverty. So they're not really separate social groups / classes, one person is just asking the why and the other isn't.

I started reading theory because I'm working class. I already hated capitalism, but didn't understand the ways it works or what needs to be done to establish socialism. I wrote a basic ML study guide if anyone wants a place to start!

You can borrow $10 if you sign this contract promising to return it to me with 9000% interest by tomorrow or else the interest rate increases 9000% on top of that every minute after the original agreed return time.
