plurality
/ free-floating groups / open plurality / plural subpopulations, factions, ideologies, parties, Marxisms / "ours groups" -> consists of components: social graph - replicated at order of magnitude - two or more; social graph - taking the form of - discontinuous object
separable multiplicity -> this is what Existentialists and Western-Marxists are likely to call it.

The Soviet Union contained 14 proletariats
/ The Soviet Union contained at least 14 proletariats plus a few additional smaller ones -> a little subjective, but depending on what words you assign to what collections of objects, this is already a fact.
multiple capitalisms in one country
/ multicapitalism (meta-Marxism) -> the concept that it is possible for a given country to consist of two or more totally separate populations of capitalists, which only appear to be one population because the borders are fuzzily defined and corporations leak from one side to the other. multicapitalism is suggested as the mechanism for how center-Liberals and Tories can become so divided to the death against each other when all the bourgeoisie should "theoretically" be on the same side. if multicapitalism is real, China would not have multicapitalism but the United States would. one of the few concrete things the CPC would have accomplished in terms of building Bolshevism or transition out of capitalism is not allowing multicapitalism to develop.

countable area of capitalism
-> capitalism as a countable object. in real life, it may be hard to pin down where the boundaries of these are, but that just means it's especially inappropriate to characterize capitalism as a "population". in some senses it can only really be an empire-border.
