“Calling ourselves objective doesn't make us any less biased (in fact, there is some evidence that it might make us more so). Being "normal" doesn't mean you have no perspective and no baggage, although it does mean you're less likely to notice these things. In any case, we can't make genuine philosophical progress on the hard questions by stuffing our personal baggage behind the sofa of "objectivity" and hoping nobody looks there.”
― Carrie Jenkins, What Love Is: And What It Could Be
