No just a bunch of kids cosplaying as poor and marginalized to sell wine under the guise on anti capitalist anarchism while literally being the products of trust fund families

Engels was a trust fund baby. If trust fund kids want to use their wealth to help the cause, more power to them the proletariat.

How is opening a wine bar and pretending to not be rich "helping the cause".

Did he hurt you? You seem to have a grudge. Or more likely, you just saw some people you didn't like the look of, and had fun building characters to hate in your head.

I never went, but I know some queers who liked it. As far as helping the cause, co-ops are a form of business ownership that mitigates the harms of capitalism, since it places ownership/control with the workers. Richard Wolf is probably the most vocal proponent of co-ops, so look him up if you want more info. (I'm not really here to debate economics, but you asked)
