Your incoherent babbling is boring as fuck.

Society is a designation of a group of people living together with more or less common beliefs and values, as distinct from other groups of people. A society can be small (hunter gatherer societies) or large (North American society). The borders around societies (when there are such) are called countries. It is a social construct, but not an abstract one.

Society is not a reification anymore than say a forest is. Both have concrete form, made up of real physical individual people, or individual trees. Both have a border, however fuzzy or arbitrary it may be drawn. Nobody would say there's no such thing as a forest, or that a forest is just an abstract idea that doesn't really exist, or that a young tree sapling did not germinate into the landscape of a pre-existing forest.

You are getting triggered by the word society, insisting it doesn't exist. Yet we can all point to a society in the physical realm or on a map, and understand what each other means by the use of the word. It's simply a category that picks out something that actually exists.

Are all egoists this obtuse and insufferable?
