i won’t ask you to define ‘work’ cuz i don’t wanna get in another fruitless debate with you, but i will show you the three levels of scumbaggery/parasitism that are possible in a capitalist system.
the lowest level of scum is the petite bourgeois, and this class generally consists of people who don’t own businesses (and therefore don’t pay wage earners for their labor) but idolize the materialistic lifestyles of the wealthy. in this category you can include, say, celebrities. also - and this is dreadfully ironic - proletarians (wage/salary earners) who are so backward and clueless they’re like ‘fuck it as long as i have enough credit to put a down payment on a 2021 camero, i’m good, bro.’
the middle level of scum is the moyenne bourgeois, and these are probably most generalized as one-time proletarians who became small business owners. these assholes are bigger scum than the petite because they actively and directly profit from exploiting wage/salary earners.
finally, the highest level of scumbaggery. the haute bourgeois. and these are the big dogs. trust fund babies, inheritors, CEOs, stock traders, etc.
there are also two general kinds of proletariat. one is the noble and courageous worker and the other is the ‘lumpen’ proletariat. this latter type consists of all the lower class refuse that lives off the government, which is funded by the working class, btw.
your boy jordan peterson is an intellectual puppet propped up by protestant conservatives to combat the leftism trends now circulating through the universities and in the media. his job is to re-brainwash college kids and youtubers into fearing socialism again… like they did during the HORRIBLE red scare.
