Nah, I used it as an example. Dialectical materialism is a worldview that sees the world as an interconnected mix of ever-changing processes, propelled by internal contradictions in everything. It's how I view the world, it's the Marxist standpoint. When a metaphysician analyzes something, they tend to abstract it and try to categorize it as though it's an individual snapshot, while a dialectician will focus primarily on how it came to be, where it appears to be going, and how it relates to everything else.

Context matters. Sometimes that means I need to take a few extra paragraphs to build my point. Do you have an example of a point I made that had too much context?
