Problem of Universals

• [go] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_universals
  • [quote] Should the properties an object has in common with other objects, such as color and shape, be considered to exist beyond those objects?
  • [quote] Philosophers agree that human beings can talk and think about universals, but disagree on whether universals exist in reality beyond mere thought and speech.
  • Seems potentially related to [qualia] and the hard problem of consciousness.
