Objective just means that it’s not based on feelings; so something can be specific to humans and not universal, but not based on feelings.

If someone says 'I'm a solipsist'. who are they talking to?
think there are other things that are life-threatening to forget - such as how to breathe and the wife's birthday, not necessarily in that order.
How can something not be based on feelings?
I could meditate on that for hours, Sensei.you can’t make 1+1=2 just because you feel like it.

Mathematics is an abstract concept.but no matter how you feel about it, or how you feel at a time, you can’t make 1+1=2 just because you feel like it.
That’s not an assumption that doesn’t do it justice
Because we need to sssume we are generally rational beings and this isn’t all a hallucination
doesn’t mean that objective quantities such as Pi, or numbers are subjective; the assumption is inherently baked into the notion of objectiveity itself.
Russell and Whitehead proved it in Principia Marhematica.1+1=2 equals is true based on assumptions.
So I am right?Russell and Whitehead proved it in Principia Marhematica.
How can we know external facts?Objective things are based on exteternal facts and evidence, and generally don’t very much need opinion to be given.
Color blind people wouldn't see.We all observe that the sky is blue.
we still all observe that the sky Is blue.
They would still be objective even if the world didn’t really exist.
How can they observe it then if not with their eyes?Blue is what we call electromagnetic radiation at a particular frequency. Both the color blind and the blind have the ability to determine electromagnetic radiation from the sky is at the frequency even if they can’t observe it directly with their eyes.
If the world didn’t really exist, and we’re all brains in jars; it’s still what everyone observes
I think you’re mistaking what is ultimately true or not with what is objective.
