Materialism is the ultimate means of oppression.

Materialism was historically just one way of understanding the world. Over time, it got accepted more and more because it could make testable (and useful) predictions, and they turned out to be right.

And it's something you've been conditioned to believe in since birth.

Because it works.

Socialists, communists etc. still rely on materialism to drive their ideology

Because it works.
