   @ned Pretending like there isn't a hierarchy of labour and that different categories of labour don't have different material conditions and interest is just flat out denying reality though.

   Like, yes, of course, politically, the working class _should be_ united. In practise, some workers (notably, highly paid workers in the imperial core) are going to be harder to get to unite than others.

     ❌ "The middle-class is shrinking."

     ✔️ "The working-class is getting poorer, while the ownership-class is getting richer."

     Lower, middle, and upper class definitions simply divide the working-class into income levels, focusing on how much they make rather than how they make it.

     This does nothing but divide workers and distract from the real issues of how they're exploited. There are two classes that really matter: the working-class and ownership-class.

     Solidarity to ALL the workers!
