Is "Prolet" becoming an insult?

I live in Austria and noticed recently, due to my boss and colleagues using it, that the word "Prolet" is being used as a swear word for basically uncultured people in german. Before reading theory, I wasn't aware of the link to marxism.

Now, I wanted to ask if any of you have heard the word being used in the same way in your languages. I'm wondering if it's used that way only in german. Do you think this might be a way to make people instinctively steer away from communism? Feels like a way to degrade the working class.

I'm an animation student and have realized at some point in my life, that this planet cannot be saved without moving to a class-less, state-less and money-less society. I do consider myself a Libertarian Marxist.
