Objective reason subordinates means to ends

Evidence

Its objective structure, and not just man and his purposes, was to be the measuring rod for individual thoughts and actions. This concept of reason never precluded subjective reason, but regarded the latter as only a partial, limited expression of a universal rationality from which criteria for all things and beings were derived. The emphasis was on ends rather than on means. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 1457
