You just don’t have class consciousness my friend and some of the terminology associated. That’s fair, it’s not always easy and it’s also purposely obscured from you.

It’s easiest to think about people in two classes. Workers and Owners. There’s a bit of gray area, but it’s a very useful distinction. How do you make most of your money; owning property/factories/ip, or selling your labor for a wage?

Profit is not the same thing as “making money”. It’s explicitly the extra money made by the capitalist after material and labor is paid. You pay 3 dollars of labor and 2 dollars of materials to make 6 dollars of revenue, you have made 1 dollar of profit. Arguably that dollar of value was made by the worker, but extracted by the capitalist.

Obviously the workers don’t do it for free, but the capitalist still isn’t making the art. **The workers do. You aren’t a capitalist. You have false solidarity with your masters.
