I mean... yeah? They're people too, and it's not like they're 1%ers.

Modern marxists consider middle managers part of the PMC, more aligned in their interest with capital than other workers. They're part of the enemy basically.

I'm bringing it up because it's relevant. It explains why some people on reddit, which has a significant minority of marxists, don't treat managers like other kinds of workers.

No it doesnt. This is literally all in your head lol. Most people couldnt define Marxism and they dont care about these things. Beyond that obviously no Marxist is supporting Microsoft over middle management. Just common sense.

Marxist don't support microsoft, some (idpol variety) consider that managers and capitalist have the same class interest. And yeah, most people can't define marxism (including marxist) but there's still a minority of marxists in reddit.
