For the dummies like me, what is it that is meant with carrier and group here below?

   So when we say that the carrier of a group is a set, it doesn’t have
   to  be specifically  a ZF  set; but  if we  imagine collecting  up all
   groups as  a single  entity, that warning  light should  flash. It’s
   dangerous to take the collection of  all sets as a single entity, then
   to build on  top of that. And  yet, that is precisely what  is done in
   category theory, again and again.
