>>507819084Ideas do not exist as physical, material things in the real world. The same can be said of concepts. So, when we speak of all of these ideas and concepts, we are not speaking of real things in the real world but of abstractions. This is where Platonism goes wrong. With Platonism, we think there is more going on here than just wordplay when we speak of all of the ideas or all of the concepts. It isn't just that there are too many, it seems that the meaning depends more on the contents of the mind rather than what is ordinary material physical world. Of course this is precisely what is going on here: we knew Forms were not real, and by insisting on their existence, we've created a mess of meaning, ontology, and deformed the Real into a grotesque caricature of itself.
