Fooled by Objectivity Theory

A framework revealing how the ideal of objectivity can mislead—by pretending that anyone can occupy a "view from nowhere," by hiding the subjective choices that shape all observation, and by using "objectivity" to dismiss perspectives that don't fit dominant frameworks. Fooled by Objectivity Theory shows how claims to objectivity often mask particular interests, how the appearance of neutrality can be a weapon against the marginalized, and how the pursuit of objectivity can become a form of blindness. We are fooled when we think we're objective, when we mistake our perspective for reality itself.
Fooled by Objectivity Theory "I'm objective; you're biased." Fooled by Objectivity: treating one's own perspective as neutral, others' as partial. The speaker didn't see their own position, their own history, their own interests. Objectivity fooled them into thinking they had none. But everyone has a somewhere; pretending you don't is the surest way to be fooled by where you stand."
