What you are talking about here is reality (objective) and the mind's perception of reality (subjective).

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.
Wrong on two counts, firstly to your second justification if you're saying that truth is objective to the object and subjective to the thinker you're talking about two different things, fact and opinion and conflating them as both being the truth. Secondly is something is objective in one scenario it is objective in all scenarios, if it weren't then it's following the rules for subjectivity.
