Uh, yes, objectivity does exist. The second law of thermodynamics is always the second law of thermodynamics, no matter what the experiences of an individual person are. 2 plus 2 will always equal 4. And some works have objective morals; it is clear in 1984 that Orwell is trying to condemn and show the evils and perils of totalitarianism. The notion that no objectivity exists is postmodernist bunk. Subjectivity does not change the object, it merely means you experience the object in your own way. Your subjectivity may cause you to hate or to love 1984, it may cause you to misunderstand the work, but it does not change the reality of the object any more than getting a problem wrong on a math test changes the fundamental laws of mathematics.
