No, Just the bourgeoisie.

Not sure where you got the idea that we'd wish harm to our fellow proletariat simply for providing indiscriminate aid in a crisis.

What do you call 2000 dead businessmen? A good start.

I just find this very reductive. Just because someone was working in the WTC doesn't make them the bourgeoisie. Maybe I don't understand class distinction well (actually I know I don't), but I find takes like these wild and dehumanizing.
