Ah, so you're defining "truth" as "whatever I imagine the world would be like if society worked the way I wished it did". There's another word for that; "fantasy".
Do you know what I mean? There's truth as in what the data says, and there's truth as in what's underlying before social processes " corrupt " the truth. This paper examines ways to get at the latent truth.
Do you think that's a useful endeavor? It's dismissive to say it has anything to do with what the "author likes".
