Reminder that farmers in western/imperial core countries are rich land owners who owns all the machinery and relies on exploiting migrant labors; also known as kulaks. And the protest itself are mostly driven by environmentally destructive livestock farmers.

Meanwhile the truckers are bourgeois as they owns their means of production (truck) and they're protesting on the behalf of corporate interest fighting against unprofitable Covid measures.

edit: alright, the truck part is a very terrible take and that's on me

Also fuck you if you think service workers are not working class.

    Being proletarian and being reactionary aren't mutually exclusive. Even if we were to agree that everyone in the farmer shite and trucker convoys were proletarian, that doesn't make them any less reactionary.

      Yes. Focusing too much on categorization is bad. We simply can look at what they're doing to decide if they're good or not. We don't have to rely on categorizing them as working class and then universally declaring all working class to be good.
