We don’t use the idealism of ‘objectivity’ as criteria and instead use testifiability because it’s performative. This accomplishes the same thing but makes no ideal claim.

@curtdoolittle In this spirit, I don’t believe we should confuse “objective” with “universally true”.
Rather something is “objective” when it meets a predefined set of criteria.
(I came to this conclusion after being tired of people bickering about something being “objective” or not)
