 It is worth mentioning that there are also minimalist views about the meanings of the words “true” and “fact”, or about how these terms are used. On one minimalist view about the meaning of “true”, for example, to say it is true that it would be bad to drink another Dr. Pepper is just a way of saying that it would be bad to drink another Dr. Pepper. And on one minimalist view about “fact”, facts are simply true propositions. These minimalist views seem to imply that uses of “true” and “fact”, as well as uses of “property”, do not have any metaphysical implications. Most important, they do not commit us to the existence of worldly states of affairs or worldly properties that underwrite genuine similarities among things.
