Depends on what you are reading

Does engaging in /lit/ threads and discussions make one more of an intellect than someone who doesn't ?

If you haven't done any reading on philosophy, political science or classical literature, then you probably won't even recognize nor understand the good conversations and just participate in the shitposting instead. So probably no.

*More* of an intellectual than someone who doesn't read mentally-engaging texts, sure. But you'll never be an intellectual if you don't read primary sources.

In any century prior to the 21st? No. It was the norm.

Now? Yes, because snapchat tabloid stories and reddit animal pictures is now the norm for passing time.

There is only one reason you should read and that is for your own personal satisfaction and enjoyment. Doesn't matter what you read, never read for any other reason.
