How is that an attack? The petite bourgeoisie generally have more to gain from joining the proletariat in the class struggle, and almost none of them have caused suffering at a scale that justifies the same attitude had towards the haut bourgeoisie. (Now people who own multiple car dealerships on the other hand)
It is only an attack if you think being a massive leech on society like Musk or Bezos is a good thing.
You also have less influence on the world around you than your farts. You have crumbs and you think you’re in charge because the people below you are worse off. You’re not going to have control until you organize together with the people on your side of the class conflict.
I think you took a statement about your class position as an insult. But I want to clarify, if you stopped working tomorrow would you have enough income for the rest of your life? If not, youre a member of the proletariat. If you could, youre petite bourgeoisie. You operate under capitalist logic but don’t have enough power to actually exercise control over the wider context your business exists in. You would be a small fish at the mercy of being eaten by larger fish. Better to not live in a system where anyone is a fish.
You’re a capitalist? How much capital do you own?

Sounds like you’re just petite bourgeoisie

There is nothing to be gained from “joining” you.
Buddy, you have less influence on the world around you than my farts.

No, I’m doing really, really well. Financially and socially, me and my family. You’re the miserable, impotent one.
Think about that.

Yeah, the racial resentment and chauvinism is really an indicator that you’re not miserable and impotent.
