"Of course. Obviously your name stands for an abstracted personality and so on, but ultimately it's all comes down to the physical. Wouldn't you agree?"
"Well yes... I am a materialist too"
"I thought so"
"Although it is confusing when I say that, and people ask how a communist can be a materialist"
"Yeah, but those people are idiots. And I suppose that materialism is the common root our beliefs branch from..."
"Exactly"
