To repeat: Some materialists, especially eliminativists like Dennett, accept the dualistic mind/matter dichotomy of Descartes in order to argue for the physical nature of the mental.

That is absurd. To deny there is a dualistic mind/matter dichotomy is not to "accept

according to you, Searle's denial of substance dualism or property dualism doesn't mean he isn't a Cartesian style interactive substance dualist.
