On the other hand, each statement has its own limits of applicability, and those of yours are quite narrow. All that quasi-Marxist stuff like "we think with a collective head" or "History is being written by the masses" sounds all right in pure theory, but proves to be quite useless when we turn to practice. It cannot explain simple specific episodes of real life. You may as well say: "There is no such thing as a personal computer, because nowadays every really working PC is (at least from time to time) connected to the Internet and shares information with other computers; moreover, the software of every computer has been created by means of other computers, etc. Therefore, PC does not exist". Has this statement got any sense and practical meaning?
