The fact that you acknowledge there exists an objective truth means you're a philosophical realist, as opposed to an idealist.

The fact that you recognize there's a subjective truth, and that it can differ from the objective truth, hints at philosophical skepticism -- though skepticism goes a bit further and claims the objective truth is essentially unknowable.

I don't really understand your "consensus truth" category. The things you list are just labels, not truth statements. Apples and oranges.
