Agreed. Most workers today in the industrially developed States don't think of themselves as being part of a class, unless they're self-defining as "middle class". They are mired in all kinds of individualistic identities and social-ideologically defined groupings e.g. race, religious faiths, nationalsims, region (I'm a Southerner) and so on. To the degree that they start acting as a class for themselves, they begin to achieve the power that they lack as narrow individualists within their segregated, ideological ghettos and to that degree, they become class conscious and a threat to the rule of Capital.
