is entirely separate from truth. Truth is necessarily objective. Therefore, to see truth as relative is not to enter a disagreement about truth but to talk about something other than truth.

But truth, after all, is objective or mind-independent. So if truth is specifically relativized, then these other communities or other species are not actually disagreeing with us about truth, since they are talking about something other than truth. To summarize: If LP is correct, then SRL is correct, and if SRL is correct, then it is either self-contradictory or talking about something other than truth. So LP must be false.
