Another way of elaborating on this point is say, simply, that human beings never experience or encounter "raw facts" in a vacuum. There is always a subjective element involved.

The whole romantic notion of "being objective" about something/anything (bland is an old Todd Rundgren fan) is itself a subjective attitude. People think what they feel. And they justify it logically for purely emotional reasons.
