    People are a product of their environment. The Material Conditions they exist in shape the ideas they have, as a direct response to their conditions. Ideas ultimately come from Material Conditions, not the other way around.

    Again, Capitalism is in decline. First world countries export machinery and finance Capital to third world countries to super-exploit for super-profits, but this is unsustsainable. The labor force in first world countries enjoy less and less of these super-profits as wages stagnate compared to productivity.

    It is in this manner that the Material Conditions have changed, and so too have ideas.
