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.

@vidak imo you are not pedantic

@vidak lol

@vidak you’re getting translation and is-ought (“actual” problem in philosophy) confused I feel like if you’re not just bullshitting
