Social relations exist (and are always already there for each hominid) and brains exist. "Mind" is obviously merely a metaphor to try to grasp the interactions between brain and social relations. Thought which assumes the existence of mind is unable to recognize social relations as real -- and hence such thought is ultimately always trivial.
