Is it as simple as, no friends? No job?
can someone be unemployed with no friends and still not be a loser overall?
many can still be a loser with a job friends and even a family.
Is it more how you affect the lives of the people around you?

It is up to yourself. You think you are not a loser, then you are not a loser.
There are billions of people out there. You don't want to ask every one of them, hey do I look like a loser?

Not putting in effort or working to improve yourself (define this yourself), hating your family and not wanting a family of your own and not having any productive hobbies. Video games and gay fantasy role playing shit doesn’t count.

the common factors along class race or gender that ive seen which act as the seed for everything else, is being very needy while disdainful of the needs of others, and then not being gracious enough to let people live their own lives

As forgettable as it was School for scoundrels had a line that stuck with me. (I cannot find a clip) A loser goes up to bat and misses every time, but he tries. That doesn't make him a loser. The actual loser is someone who is too afraid to try because he's afraid he'll miss.

The technical definition is someone losing at something.

The de facto definition is subjective to each person, but it tends to be something similar like you describe for a lot of people.

And to answer your question, I would say that someone who has a strong will to not be taken advantage of, to follow through their ambitions when they actually try, through their own fortitude to not fall into a negative and self-defeating mental state, to not be fragile when it comes to other people's opinions, and so on, then I don't consider them a loser.

I don't know just for being a "loser", but for "total loser" - I think either condition is sufficient

I think you still need some connections with other people. If you are completely isolated (both internet friends, family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances ) then yes, that is enough to be a "loser".
Let's say going to the store every day and a quick routine exchange with a cashier would count as a "human connection".

Other condition is not pursuing any meaningful activity. By that I mean a job (even if a useless job if it produces a salary), or some non-paid activity with some social utility, positive impact or that demonstrates some level of skill and having a work ethic (not compulsion, like a hoarder religiously organising their collection).
