      I admit you may be on to something. Way too often I do see shit getting dismissed or even excused by self-described leftists by saying “material conditions” as if people just look in their wallet, check their bank accounts, and that determines whether they’re going to be monsters or not.

      Usually it’s in defense of treats with horrid propaganda where the self-described leftist feels immune to the messaging and proclaims everyone else consuming the treat is, too, while insisting “material conditions” make those otherwise-propaganda-immune people decide whether they’re going to be kiddie creepers or join the military to enjoy atrocities or the like, which is itself an atomized way of looking at the world that is itself sounding a lot like internally-processed and unnoticed propaganda indoctrination that serves the purpose of making it so they don’t have to feel bad or even a hint introspective about whatever they’re consuming. not-immune-to-propaganda
