Boghossian: Global minimalism, Non-Factualism: they are related to meaning, not truth: there is no property that a word means something, hence there is no fact - global minimalism attracts global non-factualism unlike any other non-factualism.

Meaning-Minimalism/Boghossian, new/Wright: the meaning-minimalism does not have to lead to a global minimalism: the meaning-minimalism is rather bound to contradictory theses and does not provide a coherent explanation for the behavior of the truth predicate.
>
Truth predicate .
For the meaning-minimalism should accept any of the following assertions:
(5) The predicate "has the truth condition that P" does not refer to a property.
(6) For every proposition S and propositional content P, "S has the truth condition that P" is not truth conditional.

Wright: and these assertions are indeed inconsistent: (5) is necessarily followed by (7):

(7) "true" refers to a property.

Properties ,
While (6) necessarily entails the negation of (7).

Boghossian: one has to decide whether truth is robust or deflationary.
Just as unavoidable, but not to mix with this, is a decision between...

A) the concept of a correspondence of language and (objective) world, or
B) the concept of a language-bound operator of the semantic ascent (words instead of objects).

Solution/Wright: The meaning-minimalist must work with a pluralistic truth opinion (different living beings have different cognitive faculties)! (> Pluralism).
