Objective claims are the contradictory of subjective claims. Objective claims are factual, observable, and does not have personal feelings in them. People have the same view in objective matter. In the other hand, subjective claims are opinions, feelings, and beliefs. Not everyone have the same subjective view.
Few weeks ago, I read in the newspaper that 200 dead cows were found in Wisconsin. That would consider as an objective claim because it can be observe by people that 200 cows are dead. I also recently read many articles about thousands of dead birds fell from the sky or a huge amount of fish were killed.
When I told my friend about the 200 dead cows were found dead and other mass animals deaths, he quickly burst out, “OH MY F****** GOD! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE WORLD? WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!” I was baffled by his 2012 nonsense and overreaction. I just want to slap my forehead. This would all consider as an subjective claim. My friend and I have different views and reactions of the current event. He thought that the world is ending. I thought that it is foolish to think that.
However, I just heard on the news today that the cows all died from pneumonia. Since the cows are so close together when they eat and sleep, diseases can be transferred quite easily. Plus, there was a massive pneumonia outbreak. Poor cows.

Hi!
Hey ya'll. Call me Tyrone. I am a short Asian girl that likes to collect cute stuff. My major is Business Admin concentrated in Human Resources.
As for my "communication experience", I took an public speaking class last spring. It gives me benefits of being more self confident and have a better communication toward people. Additionally, I took an acting class last spring. It also gives me confident to a certain extent, but it also puts me in lots of situations where I have to be around people who won't let me be my introverted self.
I hope to gain a lot from this class, such as learning to spot fallacies in arguments and able to counter argument.
I have no experience about online classes, but it seems very interesting to have my first one. Hopefully, I can handle it. :)
I like to walk my dog, watch anime, read manga, do zumba/yoga, and feeling happy!
