of course working people can be happy. Class is an economic reality - and it is true to say that as long as their is a master class and an exploited class: that the people will always be unfree... but the alienation from labour does not have to mean personal unhappiness. Class is also a social reality, which is what I am talking about here. And no, it doesnt mean that every working person has to always be unhappy - but it makes you more fatalistic for sure.
But like Eugene G Debs said "wherever there is a working class I shall be in it"
