Explain to me what the phrase "empty abstraction" means.
No, I am not being facetious.
I am unfamiliar with the hairsplitting and word nit-picking of modern analytical philosophy, so I suppose any tentative definition of "society" I offer could be easily picked apart, but I certainly don't think it's a dispensable concept.
P.S. What's funny about the Youtube comment is that it's someone complaining that a Marxist pop band mentions "society" a lot. It's like complaining that blues guitarists use pentatonic scales too much.
