Left antipolitics must unify divergent class fractions rather than a single working class

Evidence

This renders the task of left-wing antipolitical actors—Sanders, Corbyn, Tsipras, Iglesias—considerably more difficult. In the twenty-first century, they can no longer rely solely on the working class but must instead unify divergent, loosely left-aligned class fractions: politicized millennials, segments of the new petty bourgeoisie, ideally even some conservative-leaning milieus, united under a hegemonic project. — Anton Jäger, Hyperpolitics, 210
