"Rather than attempt to understand human experience as part of a “collective consciousness” which is determined by material conditions, we should instead recognize that each human being has the same agency and capacity to make decisions as any other. The human experience is not inherently determined by race or class or any other collective identity. Hence Rothbard observes that surely “Even Marx must dimly recognize that not ‘material productive forces’, not even ‘classes’, act in the real world, but only individual consciousness and individual choice.”
