I interpreted this one as referencing doppler shift of light emitted by celestial objects due to relative motion, but apparently I was overthinking this.
- twic 8y agoOh, i thought it was about parallax.
- mirimir 8y agoYeah, it's obviously a restatement of relativity.
- hesk 8y agoAren't all observations subjective, hence not universal?
- drb91 8y agoObservations are inherently a posteriori, not a priori, this is true. However, "universal observation" is not the same as "objective" or "a priori". I'd call the experience of suffering a type of universal observation, but it's not an a priori statement, and it's certainly not objectively evaluable. That said, the phrase remains mostly meaningless without more context; I'm certainly not trying to defend the phrase itself.
- muzani 8y agoThat's the funny thing with bullshit isn't it? You can give a meaningless statement and people will just attach a meaning to it if it clicks.
