Morphology

unobjective = objective (transparent) = un + objective

A straightforward negative formed by the productive English prefix 'un-' added to the adjective 'objective', so the meaning is directly predictable.

Etymology

Unobjective is built from un- ('not') plus objective ('based on facts' or 'fair'), so it means not based on facts and influenced by personal feelings. A helpful image is a judge who should be objective but becomes unobjective when their feelings change the decision.
