This point is really stupid and overcooked. Even if it’s true which I don’t think it is, who cares? So what? What does it even mean? It’s such an obvious and dull example of whataboutism. It’s like telling a man who’s just lost a foot that vastly more people over the course of history have lost an arm. Why would you bring that up, even if it’s true which it probably isn’t?
My understanding was that idealism has to take into consideration the material conditions. That does not mean idealism, if properly adapted, cannot affect material conditions in turn.
