It's closer to "if those kids could read they'd be very upset".

I've cancelled a lot of comments before posting them when they try to argue with you lot and don't even know how you're using words.

to clarify, when you say "they" you're talking about commenters who don't even know what we mean when we use the word materialism?

Materialism is when you buy things, the more things you buy the more materialist you are. When you buy a whola lot of things you're a dialectical materialist.
