Never forget that the term "Bourgeoisie," that Communists love to name as their enemy, does not mean aristocracy; it means the middle class.
Sort of. It's actually an exceedingly archaic term that is referencing a french population of mercantile business owners that have their roots traced to the Villeins under feudalism.
But yes, Hassan Piker is far wealthier than the Bourgeoisie ever was.
"Middle class" itself is a bullshit term used to make the people that rely on wage earnings, literally the working class, feel like they're not part of the slave caste.
Middle class used to refer to those that owned their own businesses and enjoyed a lot more freedoms than serfs, but were not wealth enough to be considered nobility. Now it just means well-paid wage slave. (((Capitalism))) has its bullshit mind games too.
