The American Dream is capitalist propaganda, not anticapitalist.

Sure it is, no question. But if you take it seriously, it is completely not compatible with capitalism.

It’s incredibly compatible. Capitalists want laborers to work hard. It encourages laborers to work hard so they can one day be capitalists themselves.
It also encourages them to vote for politicians who don’t serve them, but politicians, because someday they’ll benefit from their pro-business policies.
