Material in the sense of the basic physical quantities like length and charge? No. You need to add a splash of ethnography in your materialism.

You know that those are also social abstractions of complicated phenomenon too right? Or did you not read about what a social construct was because sociology is a soft science for girls? /s

Also have you ever opened up Capital or Imperialism and looked at how many basic quantities they use when constructing their analysis?
