Destiny is like the Bill Maher of political internet personalities. He liked Bernie for a hot minute and now spends all his time talking about how the left has gone too far for a reasonable "lefty" like himself.

    "Objectivity" is an inherently poisonous concept.it simply doesn't exist. Everyone views the world from a position defined by their culture, life experiences, language, and personal biases. No matter how objective you think you are. Its essentially a self inflicted blind spot where you believe the way you see the world is the world as it actually exists.

    It's important to recognize and examine your biases. Once you've done that you can admit to yourself that you don't know everything and you're better positioned to try (try!) To find flaws in your reasoning and to appreciate other arguments and viewpoints.

      Even supposedly objective things such as computers are built, programmed, and used by people with subjective experiences and intentions. The :reddit-logo: bullshit arguments about how computer algorithms can't be racist or sexist come from that delusion.
