It is difficult to go beyond this 1-thing or 2-thing ontology... as it is
part of a long Western philosophical tradition, also one that is deeply
engrained in our ordinary language.
... well, but the individual is always and already social... even before
she/he is born! individual or social; determinism or free will... wow!
can someone offer any alternative way of thinking beyond these polarized
dimensions?
