This is an odd comment!

The class struggle is not dependent on the 'dialectic', an idealist notion
Hegel pinched from Hermetic philosophers.

We do not need this mystical theory to provide a scientific account of
history. In fact, it gets in the way, since it is incomprehensible.

Anyway, the objection confuses our abiluity to comprehend the class struggle
with it actually continuing despite us.

After all, the class struggle pre-dated Hegel....
