It's the communist Christmas y'all. I am looking forward to a day of unity, marches, and workers getting together.

For most of the world it seems to be a day off (not looking at you, The Netherlands).

Enjoy!

"Worker" in this context doesn't mean "currently employed", it means "working class person".

A working class person, a proletarian, is anyone who needs to sell their labour power to survive. As opposed to someone doesn't need to work to survive, who can live off of profits from capital they own.

I'm an intern, though not a full job. I vent about the same things too.

Yeah, if you're not bourgeois or petit-bourgeois, then you are proletarian, afaik
