The only difference is that in capitalist societies the middle/upper class was glorified, while in the so-called communist ones it was the working class that was glorified. Also, in the capitalist societies it’s the working class that is being opressed, while in the „communist” ones it was the middle class. An example would be that if you wanted to go to a university you’d get bonus points for being a farmboy or a factory worker, and you might get minus points for being a child of a profesor. It’s just that usually in the soviet countries the name „middle class” wasn’t used, it was rather called „inteligentsia”. And everybody who wasn’t working their ass off in a factory basically belonged to that group: teachers, scholars, artists, dentists, you name it. The working class were the factory workers and the farmers, while the „upper class” were the party officials, etc. It’s the same really. |

Culturally speaking you grew up in a Connecticut suburb in a two story house with a white picket fence and one and a half siblings and married the captain of your high school football team whose name is Hank.

In a dictatorship like the USSR the means of production were in the hands of the party leadership, so neither applies here. Which is my entire point in this thread: don't trust trans-historical ideological fictions.

Nah it would apply, just not in the way the USSR would have said it did. Party officials as the owning class would be some form of bourgeoisie.

This coming from the guy who doesn't know if he's French or Russian.
