Ehh, complicated. Technically most celebrities are much more aligned with the working class than the bourgeois because they are entertainers. They actually do a thing instead of playing make believe with numbers all day. The WGA strike really exposed a lot of the antagonisms between talent and management. But what actually matters here is that normal people, the people we want on our side, listen to celebrities. Obviously Cardi B isn't going to lead the People's Liberation Army of America to victory, but the more people who start to understand exactly how they're being squeezed, the better.

Jiang Qing was an actress tho. I am just saying the Cardi B Cultural Revolution is possible

I know it probably won't happen, but if we go by the heuristic that only the funniest thing possible can happen, the Cardi B Cultural Revolution is one of the highest probability outcomes of the ever intensifying contradictions.
