>>510303823 (OP)Leftists have hijacked the term "the working class" as they did with a lot of other things.
Firstly, Marxists and their derivatives consider themselves to be the working class, while not being such. The working class is represented by people who exchange their time, knowledge and efforts for money or other appropriate remuneration. Not just factory workers, but also all kinds of micro-entrepreneurs, engineers, accountants, translators, etc. Almost every taxpaying individual is a member of the working class. Marxists are, however, almost exclusively highbrow theorists, students, talkers, or naive fools. Their existence is parasitic, since they do not like and do not want to work.
Secondly, Marxist policies are detrimental to the working class. Marxists devalue labor, take away property, open borders for labor immigration (which leads to further depreciation of labor), destroy educational institutions by introducing pseudosciences in their curriculum, undermine motivation by collectivization and equalization, all while remaining distant from all this - they either are not affected by it or can quickly get away from it.
Finally, a Marxist system is never voluntary for the masses - it in itself implies a revolution. But talkers and theorists, who never held in their hands anything heavier than dicks, do not know how to fight. Therefore, they create an attractive wrapper for Marxism, with promises designed to attract outcasts and misfits to their side. The "builders of Marxism" are not hard workers with families and work ethics, but bandits, thieves, lumpens, drunks, hobos, druggies, faggots, niggers, freaks and other representatives of the bottom of the social barrel - stupid, evil, envious and driven only by a thirst for enrichment. And if the revolution succeeds, they immediately seize power by wringing the chicken-necks of Marxist theorists. And none, absolutely none of these developments harbor anything good for the working class, as history shows us.
