That's a silly argument. If someone declares themselves to be expert in some aspect of life then it wouldn't be amiss to ask what expertise they had and how they might have obtained it. And to question that expertise if necessary. Especially as you admit to having no knowledge of the matter.
As in: What is your definition of Marxism? Where did you train in said political beliefs? How does your Marxism relate to how you live your life? Where do you see Marxism as being an advantage in the political arena? Etcetera etcetera.
Wouldn't you want to know?
I would personally want to question anyone's self identification ads people tend to be very good at deceiving themselves. The politically correct rule that insist it is somehow an attack to question anyone about it is not my rule so I am not the one you should be debating on it. However, the nice woman that has invested so much money into housing for herself did not claim expertise in Marxism she just claimed to have been trained in it. The citizens of the USSR could have claimed as much. I doubt her training was quite as rigorous or costly or as tragic as theirs was. I also doubt that their plight and the plight of the millions of others who have universally suffered under any Marxist regimes was emphasized in her training.
