I once believed that this could be overcome,and that it was possible for people to give a truly neutral, unbiased view of a situation. No more.

People can get pretty close when they have the intelligence, training and particularly the temperament for it, and especially so with peer review. I've seen way too much success with that to dismiss it. Not that everyone can do it. Or even that the majority can do it. But people can. Unfortunately our society is valuing that ability less and less as we reward the loudly opinionated shouting heads.
