I agree with this sentiment. In general, I think that leftist political ideas are quite popular when you swap out the leftist terminology. "The real culture war is between the shareholders and the workers" doesn't raise a person's guard like "The bourgeoisie are oppressing the proletariat". It also forces you to explain a little about your meaning to somebody who maybe doesn't already know what these terms mean. Whenever I'm trying to talk politics with someone who is open-minded but not explicitly leftist, I try to use this tactic so I don't immediately run into a wall of conditioned responses.
