Somebody should make a Marxism Lego set, with pieces labelled Feudalism, Capitalism, Aristocracy, Bourgeoisie, Working Class, Base, Superstructure, Youth, Women, Intelligentsia, etc. We could all build imaginative structures out of these, take pictures of them, and post the pictures on our Facebook pages. It would be profoundly dialectical, and thoroughly materialist -- there's nothing quite so concrete as a Lego block, especially when you step on one in your bare feet, trying to sneak quietly from your kid's bedroom after reading him to sleep.
