Basic logic, you cannot have something hold the properties of x and not x at the same time. What you are talking about here is reality (objective) and the mind's perception of reality (subjective). The mind plays tricks on us all the time, and we tell untruths as a result without realising them.
I agree on what you are saying regarding logic, however, the absurdity doesn't apply here, for in human person the mind of one is objective for another. Further, in truth, being objective and subjective is in different senses (as what is objective is the thing being known, and the subjective is the knower) and there are no contradiction in case of different senses.
