    workers (the proletariat)

    I agree with everything you said but I'd argue there are still non-proletarian forms of the working class left.

      There are, proletarians are workers under capitalism. There are non-capitalist modes of production: handicraft/artisinal production as well as peasantry and subsistence farming. They're workers, but not proles.

      They stated: " but the two main classes under capitalism are always workers (the proletariat) and capitalists (the bourgeoisie)."
