You’re strawmanning so hard here, it’s an actual fire hazard.

They are correct though, it is subjective and it will shift over time as the “acceptable” political lines change over time.

Bigotry, blatant bigotry especially is hardly subjective. It’s more subtle forms might be harder to indentify without making some biased judgements, but that doesn’t make it inherently subjective.

I don’t know how you can say that given that less than 100 years ago in all of the Western world (save maybe France). Bigotry was the default governmental, societal and scientific position. And opposition to it was seen as distasteful as bigotry is today.
