Of course he is, but telling people to focus on one tiny segment of the capitalist class instead of understanding the actual system is fascism 101.

Instead of showing people how the system works and that the whole thing is against their interest, you just tell them it’s one particular group doing it wrong.

Also the issue isn’t “anyone over X dollars”, capitalist refers to the relationship with the means of production. Putin is part of the capitalist class because Russia is a capitalist state and Putin is literally the representative of the national bourgeoisie of Russia.
