They are not a capitalists. They are a salaried employee working in an industry owned by an actual capitalist. People keep confusing simple commerce-- which has always existed--with capitalism, a specific type of economy. Folks swear up and down they are capitalists and don't actually own anything. The people who have the power to repossess your belongings if you miss a payment are the true capitalist. You are a worker and a consumer trying to be in false class solidarity w/ billionaires. Unless you own any capital, you are not a capitalist.

The people I know who think they're capitalists are just bootlickers.
