“Corporations are bad because they’re greedy” doesn’t read like materialism to me, but maybe you’ve read different theory. Or am I reading that wrong? Are you saying that, actually, you’re just done with materialism as a concept?
Because uh.
Or maybe you’ve never read anything, because you’re too smart to waste your time reading other people’s thoughts. 🫸
It’s not an overproduction crisis. It’s an escalating greed crisis paired with a disappearing guardrails crisis caused by a kakistocracy.
Both of those things produce overproduction, and then overproduction reproduces them as producers and regulators respond to the ongoing crisis.
It’s a dialectic, you see.
No, greedy corporations cutting corners, firing people, and raising prices don’t cause overproduction.
Stop trying to cram unrelated 21st century real world problems into your oversimplified 19th century framework of false dichotomies.
Greedy corporations overproducing causes overproduction, and so does removing the guardrails. Read literally any theory.
They’re not overproducing. They’re cost cutting and exploiting workers, neither of which is an act of production.
And no, I don’t think I’m gonna be wasting any more time reading monist theory such as materialism than I already have.
I prefer NOT trying to cram the whole world into one specious binary.

Not to me either, but “profiteering equals overproduction and so does regulatory capture” sure does.
Yeah, because that’s the ONLY way to disagree with your reductionist theory: to not be aware of it 🙄
You can’t make this shit up, folks
Except you literally just did with your ridiculous strawman version.
You’re definitely too smart to waste your time reading reductionist theories! You only read real theory, like… what, exactly?
