That’s the exact mindset OP is trying to expose. You are a participant in capitalism, but you are most likely not a capitalist. And that is true for 99.9% of people probably
The are two definitions of capitalist, one is a person that supports capitalism regardless of their class. It’s possible for a person to recognize that they’re a worker and consumer, and unlikely to ever have any capitol outside of their house and retirement accounts, and maybe not even that, and still think capitalism is the best system for workers to live under. Dumb, but possible, and seemingly widespread.

Supporting it doesn’t make them a part of it. If you want to own a home but dont, you are not a homeowner
