Almost like, "You mean there is no chair there????"

However, what would be the difference [insofar as outcome] between
saying, "Real bullets," and saying "Everything in my construction system
allows me to speak of a construction which I will label with the
signifier BULLETS?"
Then, to push the point: What would be the difference between saying,
"The evidence shows that there ARE REALLY INFERIOR RACES," and saying
"Everything in my construct system allows me to speak of INFERIOR
RACES."
