Is true objectivity possible? No easy button here. Explain yourself, please.

Depends on what kind of objectivity you are talking about. I'm assuming you mean how we come to hold the opinions we have.
If so, then aye, I do lean towards thinking true objectivity being impossible. We are all inevitably informed by our biases and personal experiences. | |

No. Everyone’s perspective is colored by their personal experience. Even if we strive to view things objectively, it’s still viewed from a skewed perspective in contrast to someone else. | |

Mathematics is the closest, but purely objective, no. | |

Well, it may include arbitrariness. But could the nature of such arbitrariness classify it as a subjective part? | Signature machine broke. |

are you using "objective" in some special way?
what part of math isn't objective?

I voted yes, something is either true or false, it can't be both.
Personal experience paint your POV, but that could just mean you're wrong about some of your opinions. | |

Equal rights, colors, murder is morally wrong, maths, science, the existence of a moon and a sun, are things that are all true.
If there are two conflicting things that are true I can't think of it. | |
