As I understand it “working class” encompasses anyone whose income comes from working regardless of how well off they are, as distinct from people whose income comes from owning shit (stocks or other rent seeking). Am I off base here?
In the Marxist sense, yes that’s what proletarian means.
In the Liberal sense, working class and middle class are two separate and distinct classes. One is poor and the other is financially comfortable.
Yeah every word basically has a liberal version and a Marxist (working class, labor aristocrat, imperialism etc)
Kind of yeah. It’s why marxists use more specific terms like proletariat, peasant, petit bourgeois, labor aristocrat, comprador, PMC etc to convey extra nuance.
When a Marxist is trying to avoid saying “proletariat”, that is the definition they will use, but that is absolutely not the common American definition.
