Nothing would do more to take the wind out of the sails of revolutionary communism than putting the Millennials in houses and guaranteeing some plausible form of retirement that they won’t get sick and die before reaching, or see their 401Ks gambled away by the world’s most obvious charlatans and perverts if they suffer long enough.

Certainly; why, if things just got that bad, the American people would have no debateable choice but to become communists, as 180 years of historical materialism has consistently predicted. They would have a deep and accurate knowledge of just who stole their surplus value and they definitely wouldn’t be swayed by any number of political illusions, even if they had a smaller and smaller window of what was politically feasible. Their Homo economicus sense would spring into action and conclude that it is in their best interest to become revolutionaries and destroy everything they were familiar with. There would be no learned helplessness, no clinging to the old world, no despondency, no disparate rage, just a cool, rational switch in behavior.

Maybe the most revolutionary communist thing you can do is to directly drive as many people in America into poverty. If it doesn’t lead to revolution then they’re just not poor enough.

As a very dedicated and astute communist yourself, I’m certain you happen to be quite destitute personally.
