I 139
Subjective/objective/Wright: why do we not simply express all our "opinions about the strange with "I find .."? Answer: it is useful to have the objectified form of community, because often we can quite rightly accept a community response to the strange. ((s) otherwise the strange would not exist in the form in which we know it).
>Language community, >Language behavior, >Language use, >Meaning,
>Reference.
I 139/40
There are terms that are too simple to argue about. E.g. the content of arithmetic assertions like "57 + 65 = 122" does not say anything about consensus and has therefore no logical consequences.
>Arithmetics/Wittgenstein.
But there would also be no standard of correctness to satisfy if not on every basal level could be a consensus presupposed.
>Correctness/Wright.
I 216
Representation/Wright: in contrast to that, the representative character of judgments e.g. on the forms of a children's puzzles has to do with: how very different we may be biologically constituted, or which natural laws would be effective, the variety of judgments must be seen as a symptom for cognitive dysfunction.
>Cognitive coercion, >Judgments, >Knowledge, >Competence, >Laws of Nature.
