Karl Marx's materialism says that conditions determine consciousness, rather than ideas determining reality. If that is so, how does your refrigerator's material conditions relate to your physique?

>>77230536My fridge's food contents look much more diverse. I suspect your consciousness may cease from complications of cholesterol overdosage in the next few years, based on the massive amount of eggs in your fridge contents.>also protip: Marx was retarded, unless you're talking about the different high-voltage generator guy.

>>77230536>Karl Marx's materialism says that conditions determine consciousness, rather than ideas determining reality.Which is of course retarded. If you take an ape from the jungle and put him in a house he'll still have the mind and behavior of an ape. And man is the same way. We are above all a certain type of animal. Our material conditions change almost nothing about our consciousness. They tried this experiment over and over thinking they could make man act they way they want by adjusting his conditions.
>>77230830>man is like all animalsWe are the only sentient race on earth.Where are all these great tech civilizations that baboons and cats created?We are above common animals.
>>77231156Just because we can exercise some agency doesn't mean we aren't a certain kind of animal, who behaves a certain way, has certain instincts, likes and dislikes.

>>77230830That’s not really what Marx meant. He wasn’t saying biology doesn’t matter or that you can turn an ape into a human by changing its environment. He was talking about human social consciousness, i.e. our beliefs, values, politics, religion, and sense of possibility, and how these are shaped by material and historical conditions like class relations, labor, property, and institutions.For example, a feudal peasant, an industrial worker, and a modern investor don’t just have different “ideas” by accident; their social position shapes how they understand the world. Marx’s point was that social being influences consciousness, not that human nature is infinitely malleable or biology is irrelevant.Saying “man is an animal” doesn’t really refute historical materialism; Marx would agree humans are natural beings. His argument was about how specifically human consciousness develops within society and production, not about denying human nature.
>>77230830>They tried this experiment over and over thinking they could make man act they way they want by adjusting his conditions.Precluding behavior incompatible with the organism, this has by and large worked. Look around you, fag. You're part of the largest social experiment on record, and your its fruit. Congrats. Also, you haven't read Marx. And your probably gay.
>>77231242Vague generalizations. Human instincts are very specific things, not "likes and dislikes" which are subjective and heavily influenced by environment (favorite color, favorite food, dating preferences, choice of work, etc)
