I don't think anyone engaged in this discussion claims or thinks that
markets are an abstraction from the social relations. Efficient Market
Hypothesis, as the name suggests, is just an hypothesis within the realm of
neoclassical finance. Some take it seriously as this guy does:

Some like me don't!

I don't give any financial advice to people, Marxist or otherwise.

As a Turkish saying goes: "If the bold had known how to cure boldness, he
would have cured himself first!"

Best,
