From the reading, I’ve gathered that a Subjective claim is a claim that is developed based upon personal beliefs and opinions; however, an Objective claim is a claim that is a more generalized statement in which large groups of people can agree on.
For example, the other day I was in the kitchen and one of my sorority sisters was making hamburgers and she offered to make my roommate and me one. My roommate declined, explaining that she refused to eat meat due to the inhumane way animals are treated. Obviously, this is my roommates personal opinion in which the sister that was making the hamburgers did not share. This is an example of a subjective claim.
A couple days following that incident, a friend of mine was describing their friend in detail. They stated that he was about 6 foot tall with blond hair and blue eyes. This is an example of an Objective claim because this claim described exactly what he looked like, and it would be impossible to argue.
Thank you for reading! :)
