Using your body to make art is working. They do not own the means of production. Tattooing is labor.

How do you not see that a tattoo artist can ALSO be a capitalist lol?

A capitalist does not work for their capital. They do not labor for it. Tattoo artists are workers.

What if the tattoo artist owns their own shop lol? You should probably rethink your tattoo haha 😂

Are they doing the labor? Do they manage the place? That’s not a capitalist. A capitalist is someone who uses wealth to invest for the sake of profit and profit alone. Please show me an artist building a tattoo shop for profit and nothing else. Workers who support capitalist ideals are not capitalists, they’re just workers living under capitalism. Lot of y’all need to retake some basic Econ and government courses.
