    Side note, this also reminds me of Christian creationists dismissing biomed/evolutionary science because HURR DURR I BELIEVE IN GOD AND YOU DON’T AND GOD CREATED HUMANS SO OBVIOUSLY I KNOW MORE ABOUT HOW HUMANS WORK!

      On chapo I read this gem: “I don’t need to read theory. I am informed by material conditions.”

      Using Marxist language to defend idealism.

      I bet their racist uncle who blames Mexicans for their problems is also informed by nothing but his material conditions.

        That’s just sad. They could easily justify any horrible behaviors by saying its their material conditions, while staying ignorant.

        I’m sure capitalists think they’re “informed by their material conditions” and use that to justify theft of labor time.
