 (Identity theorists normally presuppose the factive conception of facts, so that “factive” is redundant in the phrase “factive facts”, and that is the policy which will be followed here.) Though a bipolar conception of facts (if indeed Wittgenstein has it) may seem odd, the bipolar conception of states of affairs (which, it is generally agreed, he does have) seems quite natural: here the identity theorist says that a true proposition is identical with an obtaining state of affairs (see Candlish &amp; Damnjanovic 2018: 271–2).
