Sorry, but what we see (or hear or taste or smell) is not necessarily
objective. An objective statement is purely factual and provable. Our

So you can't say that a statement is objective until you research
whether or not it's factual and provable?
And this can change over time, like at one time if you said "Pluto is a
planet in our solar system" that would have been factual and provable 50
years ago, but now the scientific community has said that Pluto is not a
planet.
