This. It is also worth noting on that excerpt that there is certainly contradiction there. The thing is, it’s not an intractable contradiction and it doesn’t make our Marxist minds explode. Liberals see a contradiction and think “that can’t exist then, there must be a correct non-contradictory answer.” Only with a dialectical mode of reference does one become at ease with contradictions.

You are correct that there are still contradictions. What I meant was that the intractable contradictions specific to idealist thought disappear when we fully embrace materialist dialectics. Like you said, we can easily deal with contradictions, but liberals can’t.
