Okay so banger insight I got from here:
material conditions reign supreme as the foundation of any meaningful program or political convo. This type of analysis cuts laserlike through vast clouds of fluffy, worthless, marketplace of ideas grift style vvvvibes-based "idealistic" baloney.
However.
Vibes, also, are a thing. Often enough vibes become material conditions. People fight, work, organize, sacrifice and die for Vibes. Non material elements can rally support around a material cause.
What are good ways to think about the relationship between material conditions and.. idealism, pure "politics", lofty rhetoric, untethered wishful thinking... vibes. I'm hoping some well-read comrade will bless us with thought or maybe a reading rec
I love you all 
I highly recommend people read Luna Oi's translation on Dialectical Materialism: The Worldview and Philosophical Methodology of Marxism-Leninism
It isn't very long, has a glossary of terms in the back, and has visual aids to help you understand dialectical materialism.
When you're ready you can graduate to their latest book: Historical Materialism to learn how to apply dialectical materialism to the study of history.
