Now that I realize the correct interpretation of the image. I'd like to point out that the way that the way that the loom and sewer text is written is wrong, the workers do not own the output, they do not pay to the capitalist and keep the rest, the capitalist pays them for their labor and owns the output.

Yep! They are trying to frame surplus value extraction as "workers paying the capitalist," but the only reason they would pay anyone is if they did not own their instruments of labor. It's all speech meant to frame a more voluntary arrangement than it really is.
