But surely we are all products of . . .
Not as cheeky as that washing powder ad on British TV a few years back that called upon you to Demand The Impeccable,** but just as brazen nonetheless.
Hat tip to Histomat.

Cheers for the 'hat tip'.
There is another way of looking at the HM shop - perhaps the owners chose the name so they could say to their customers 'oh, we have a website - just google 'Historical Materialism' and you will find us' - and then perhaps some of their customers find out more about Marxism...
Perhaps that interpretation is being too generous to the bourgeois owners though...
A fair point, and that may be the case.
In fact I'm the same; in real life I spend 12 hours a day reading Marx, Engels, Hegel, Korsch and the lyrics of Nena in the original German, and then as a sideline I produce a frivilous blog with more emphasis on pop culture than prolekult in the knowledge that people typing 'S Club 7 + drugs rehab' or 'pictures of fried mars bars' into the google search engine will stumble upon the blog advertising the Socialist Standard.
