(9 hours ago)The Crying Bunny Wrote: Facts are objective.
Truths are subjective.
"Truths" (plural) have been redefined by the Left to be subjective, such that each person can have their own personal "truths". "Truth" itself (singular) is not subjective, nor does it depend of "feelings" or "consensus" or any individual's "belief". it just IS. It stands alone.
Since I've long fought against the redefinition of the English language by the Left to mean whatever the Left wants it to mean on any particular day, I do not accept any subjective, individual-based "truths". They are like Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny (no offense intended there, bud!). They are convenient fictions redefined to keep the children calmed.
Examples: "My Truth" is that I am a male. That's what it feels like to me, and that is subjective. "Truth" is that I have X and Y chromosomes, plus dangly bits where the average man has dangly bits and the average woman does not, and that condition has been defined as "male" for millennia, in recognition of biological differences (i.e. "science"). That is objective "Fact" or "Truth". It just so happens, in my case, that both tend towards agreement.
