Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -False consciousness denotes people’s inability to recognize inequality, oppression, and exploitation in a capitalist society because of the prevalence within it of views that naturalize and legitimize the existence of social classes.

Detailed explanation-2: -This is a Marxist concept that suggests that the proletariat (working class) do not recognise that they are being exploited by the bourgeoisie (ruling class) and indeed contribute to their own exploitation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Friedrich Engels (1820–1895) used the term “false consciousness” in an 1893 letter to Franz Mehring to address the scenario where a subordinate class willfully embodies the ideology of the ruling class. Engels dubs this consciousness “false” because the class is asserting itself towards goals that do not benefit it.
