Yes, their class interests push them into class solidarity and coordinated actions to suppress the working class. It doesn’t have to be a conscious individual alignment for it to be class warfare, all that matters is they do align themselves and collectively wield their power for their shared goals, which the capitalists do. I don’t see how you can recognize their shared material interests and the ways in which that manifests in them as a class coordinating for those interests along common lines, and still look at it as random individual actions just being stumbled into. I don’t know what argument you think you’re making, I don’t think the current crop of capitalists created capitalism nor consciously devised its mechanisms. They are part of this socioeconomic system though, it doesn’t just happen to them, regardless of the fact it existed before this generation of its ruling class. There absolutely is a group of people responsible for this outcome: the bourgeoisie and the state that serves them. It is a feature of capitalism.
