    Okay I think I'm out of the loop on the lingo for this. What the devil does PMC stand for?

    I know we're not talking about private military contractors like how pmc is commonly used, or else this'll be a notch more terrifying.

      Professional-managerial class. They're the people the bourgeoisie employ to deal with the working class.

        Tip: they're not actually a class, just a subset of the working class.

        So just like private military contractors but with less pew-pew-pew

      Marx classified class by your relationship to capital. When he was around you didn't really have middle managers types. So PMC was created to describe people who benefit from capital but don't directly own any (substantial).
