I think, @Marina, that’s because the distinction between those presumed oppositions just isn’t there. Intellect is social, in the sense that without society, we wouldn’t have an intellect.
The obverse is also true. Without intellect, we wouldn’t have society. We can’t really conceive of one without the other.
My sense is that this is trying to sound like a pseudo-intellection question, because our friend JeanPaul is not certain what he is after. Perhaps he thinks that in some way, social construction is non-intellectual, or that the intellection has nothing to do with society. Since neither is true, there’s not much to be said, although, as usual, I have said it at length.
Another way of looking at it, would be “is fluther a socializing site, or is it for intellectual discussion?” But that is really pushing it, I think. A lot of new people have recently shown up. Through social encouragement, they will soon learn how we approach intellectual engagement.
