    Petite bourgois are by definition workers.

    No, they’re not. They’re always blurring the lines. Clearly class traitors in this context.

      So they don’t produce surplus value that is siphoned off by capital?

      All those contractors that went bankrupt because Trump doesn’t pay his bills, do you intend to say that to their face? That because they own a literal hammer, they can’t get fucked over?

      Even fucking tankies, at least some of them, acknowledge this: In the GDR tradespeople, from baker to electrician, owned (as in actually owned) their business. Hiring a journeyman and having a trainee doesn’t bourgeois make.
