Materialism Is a Left Wing Political Project

Marks didn't invent the materialist approach. Every four year old uses it, and you can see it employed in ancient texts from around the world right through to some of mark's contemporaries. Now, although materialism is associated with karl marx, many materialist scholars were explicitly marks socialists. It doesn't mean that materialist analysis is inherently left wing or socialist in any way. You can use a materialist analysis for right wing purposes, just like you can use it for left wing purposes.
