Except no? The capitalist class historically bands together to fight possible revolutions and the working class 100% of the time. They are more class conscious, meaning they understand their position better, and start working to protect it sooner than the working class can perceive the class conflict escalating.
Just look at what’s happening right now! The far-right is rising all over the “west”, worker protection laws are being eroded, pensions “reformed”.
It’s undeniable the capitalist class is much more united and organized. It doesn’t matter if they’ll or do stab each other in the back behind the scenes.
They have a natural sense for “democratic centralism” it seems, cause their outward actions are always united against us.

Don't forget the rapid increases in police militarisation to prevent through intimidation or crush through violence any uprisings as we go deeper into end stage capitalism and global warming.
And it’s been happening for decades already! Like it never stopped. We put the fear of god into their hearts in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and they never recovered.
A special armed squad to protect capital was born because they understand class war even better than most current leftists.
Even after they “won” they just doubled down because unlike working class libs, they know class war will not end until one or all of us are done for.
