Perhaps I am being pedantic, but--
A lot of people in the English speaking world use the words "subjective" and "objective".
Quite often I see people map these words almost completely onto the dichotomy of "false" and "true".
I just wanna say it doesn't work like that.
I see people making really good arguments, but letting themselves down because they assume objective is good/true/reliable and subjective is the target position for attack.
