The classical notion of the "working class" is predominantly in Asia today, the first world financial oligarchy captures the value generated there and is then taxed by first world governments and some of the loot captured is used to artificially rise the living standards of the first world lumpenproletariat. Revolutionary consciousness cannot be generated outside the immediate process of production so don't expect revolutionary consciousness to develop if the conditions are not there... China is pretty much the spot where a legitimate socialist revolution could break out if the state capitalist regime starts to crumble and people capture the means of production for their own use instead of making barbie dolls for fat American children

The "poor white working class" are just those that benefited from the keynesian military-welfare state apparatus and imperialist looting of the third world. Most of them worked in jobs that are no longer necessary and which were artificially stimulated by government policies after WWII.
The authentic working class is in Asia today.

>I'll add that these bourgeois-bohemians, who speak so condescending about the proletariat, are exactly the kind of people who either don't have to deal with the effects of globalism, and massive, uncontrolled immigration, or are so culturally nihilistic as to not care.

You're very wrong. Who you're describing generally highly directly benefit from globalization in terms of employment and culture.
The first world "working class" also benefit from sucking the labour out of third worlders as well but in a more abstract round-about way, you can get them to support protectionism until they start feeling the effects of inflation and their cheap electronics stop being cheap and their welfare transfers coming from the profits of financial capital get cut back on.
The truth is all first worlders benefit (directly or indirectly) to much from exploiting immigrants and third world slave labour to ever go back to protectionism and have to actually be directly exploited 14 hours in a factory.
