I would argue that the relationship between classes (specifically here capitalists and workers) is more mechanical in nature. Any owner who profits without working is automatically extracting wealth from a worker. It’s a parasitic relationship.

Race/sexual orientation/etc doesn’t have an equivalent. It’s perfectly possible for a white person to not be racist but it’s not possible for a capitalist to not exploit workers.
