If you own a factory you don't need to work to live. You just collect the profits and are a capitalist.

If you work in said factory to make enough money to live you are a worker.

This meme says you should not be for capitalism if you are a worker.

It’s not as easy. Unless people do all the work for you, you still have to manage that factory

You can also capitalize on the money you make from your work, making you take risks just like the factory owner for a revenue

Of course it's not as simple. I was just dumbing it down to the simplest things.

If you own companies and such that generate profit for you you are capitalist.

If you do jard work in a company to get money you are a worker.

Just sinplifying as much as possible so you can maybe understand the meme. It's not that complicated.

Yea alright, wasn’t obvious to me

I tend not to agree with your beliefs but that’s alright

I never stated these to be my beliefs. I was just trying to explain the meme.
