she isnt making socialism cooler or more hip( thats unmaterialistic, the world getting annihilated before our eyes does)
Materialism doesn't mean "100% of a person's political opinions are determined 100% by material conditions, and nothing else." Stuff like propaganda and whether it's acceptable to discuss X-ism in mainstream society absolutely matter, too. Pushing the idea that socialism is a program we should be considering is an essential prerequisite to creating socialism.
People who created actual socialist states didn't just let the material conditions on their own bring people around to socialism. They went out and convinced people to join their side.
