Those ARE the only working class folks, all others are just larping.
The most honest thing leftists ever did was in Disco Elysium, where they asked the question: "Are Women Bourgeoisie?"; but like any leftist confronted with truth (even their own) they immediately ran from it.
The answer is "yes".
The working class is everyone who has to labor for their income instead of living off the income they generate through their ownership of capital.
A womb is a kind of capital. It is, in the most literal sense, the means of production.
Firstly I think it's funny that they think the hammer and sickle is some kind of wedge between people who do one kind of work and people who do a different kind. Wait till they see
Second of all communism will win because, without labor, not a single gear would turn. I don't think the same can be said about weirdos who need an ownership stake in wombs.
Third, I have yet to be convinced that collective ownership of personal property is a tenant of communism and if it was I fail to see how it contributes to nor leads to personal sovereignty and flourishing
I mean that is how a lot of reactionaries view women in general. There's a reason why there are so many politicians trying to restrict access to birth control and limit women's ability to divorce their husbands.
Land of the free btw
This is all very well and good, and a good objection to aesthetic based conceptions of class. However he's saying that
women ARE bourgeois because the uterus is a person factory.
We are not even at the level where we have to point out that baristas are worrkers,
If you think about it... You own your body, which can produce things, so in some sense everyone owns means of production and is therefore capitalist.
