Say one could make a mirror that made the viewer see himself in utter and complete objectivity.
A mirror that, if hitler looked into it, would make him shoot himself in the head.

Could some or all of the world's problems be solved with this object?
We /philosophy/ now.

what would seeing oneself objectively even entail? do you mean a mirror that shows you the way that most people view you? if so, how would that mirror reflect non-physical characteristics in any obvious way? how is this different than polling people and asking for their honest opinion of you?

this isn't philosophy. it's barely a coherent thought.

This is the absolute truth.
Hitler can shoot himself for having the same nationality with Asuka.

What objectivity?

What if he was aware of his thoughts and his actions and he saw them as 'right'?

Who decides how you see yourself?

Why did you pick Hitler to be your example of objectively wrong?
First of all, there've been "wronger" people throughout history.
Second of all, there's no such thing as objectively "wrong" when it comes to evaluating a person.

What if we made a sun the size of dignity? Is such a thing even possible?

I think objectivity is looking beyond (or maybe before?) right and wrong at what is absolutely true.

Which, contrary to what OP said, would not make Hitler shoot himself if he saw.
