Objectivism has a lot to do with objectivity. I'm sorry if this is news for you. How reality is perceived and how objective knowledge is attained are at the core of this doctrine -- without these one cannot even talk about rational pursuit of self-interest.

I wasn't even asking a question about HN, just making a remark.

I.e. objectivism has to do with objectivity, not vice versa.

The definition of objectivity simply does not reference objectivism.
