Marx's Mergers and Enlightenment Again?

In response to part 2, I would reframe the argument of the optimism of the oppressed to propose that the oppressed have self-actualized within the materialist world, noting their place within the bureaucracy. But not only the oppressed, but also those within the oppressors, as they are realizing the structure within society and some came to understand the need for change. So in terms of the enlightenment period, I believe it could also be considered a period of self-actualization.
