social classes exist even in the afterlife; the closest resemblance of heaven would be the bourgeoisie class in life while hell would be categorized as proletariat. Hamlet was violent enough to think about killing Claudius and postponing his plan so he doesn't enter the bourgeoisie class even after death.
