Can we really apply objectivity to philosophy?

I mean

We can try

:sawako:

Isn't objectivism a sociological theory or movement or something

This is above my non-existent paygrade

Ayn Raind

Or however her name is spelled

Think it's Ayn Rand

Ah, right

?‍♂️

bud dum tss

Always one letter away from being right

Also, school uniforms huh

"The name "Objectivism" derives from the idea that human knowledge and values are objective: they exist and are determined by the nature of reality, to be discovered by one's mind, and are not created by the thoughts one has. Rand stated that she chose the name because her preferred term for a philosophy based on the primacy of existence—"existentialism"—had already been taken."

Wonder why that was even a thing

but is reality objective

:sawako:

Eh, depends on your model of though

Eh, depends on your model of thought

so it's subjective

Not necessarily

So from what I'm getting from that is, there should be a baseline of human morality

What is it, quid

Disagreeing with something doesn't prohibit it from being objective
