WHY are subjectivism and objectivism BOTH myths?

Question:OBJECTIVISM requires an infinite amount of infinite understanding to apprehend the infinity of what IS. And that's just for us here on our little planet. Ontologically...the equation gets even more rediculous by a magnitude of infinity times infinity...go home already...

SUBJECTIVISM is the land of unicorns we retreat to when we're not even willing to try.

BOTH are myths...

SUBJECTIVISM is the land of unicorns we retreat to when we're not even willing to try.

BOTH are myths...

Personally I never heard them called myths.

subjectivism is a myth because it denies the reality of absolute truth, since all is only true from your own personal vantage point. an example is death. a person can't be dead based on your perception, he is either dead or alive. objectivism usually ignores the moral and physical realities of the individual and concentrates on the supremacy of the intellectual faculy. this is by it's definition is not objective for the experientail reality of a person consists of combining all his elements together, those which are in fact objective along with those that are if fact subjective.

Rand, the founder of Objectivism said: "Reality exists as an objective absolute—facts are facts, independent of man's feelings, wishes, hopes or fears." This is no myth. It is truth.

"Objectivism, epistemological: Doctrine maintaining that everything apprehended is independent of the apprehender. (Montague) [1]

Of subjectivism, she said: "Subjectivism is the belief that reality is not a firm absolute, but a fluid, plastic, indeterminate realm which can be altered, in whole or in part, by the consciousness of the perceiver—i.e., by his feelings, wishes or whims. "

That would be in line with Montague.

Subjectivism: a) In Epistemology: The restriction of knowledge to the knowing subject and its sensory, affective ind volitional states and to such external realities as may be inferred from the mind's subjective states. See Solipsism, Ego-centric Predicament.
b) In Axiology: The doctrine that moral and aesthetic values represent the subjective feelings and reactions of individual minds and have no status independent of such reactions. Ethical subjectivism finds typical expression in Westermarck's doctrine that moral judgments have reference to our emotions of approval and disapproval. See The Origin and Development of Moral Ideas. Vol. 1, Ch. l. [1]

Subjectivism is not a "myth," it is, instead, epistemologically incorrect.
