Not sure why this got removed from 196lemmy…blahaj.zone but it would be real nice if moderation on Lemmy gave you some sort of notification of what you did wrong. Like an automatic DM or something

Ok, you seem to fundamentally misunderstand what “objective” means. Neither of these statements is true.
Objective means, something can be confirmed by observation. For example if we were in a room and there would be a rock on the table and you say “there is a rock on the table” that would be true. And everyone else in the world could look into the room and observe for them themselves that the rock is infact sitting on the table. That’s objective truth.
However if you said “this rock is ugly”, that is not objective. Differnet people will have different opinion on the prettiness of the rock, because it’s an inherently subjective quality. There is not “true” value for the rock’s prettiness that can be observed.
The same goes for all moral judgements. You can not observe or meassure a moral quality objetivily because it’s a value that is assigned by the judgment of a human brain. It’s not an intrinsic quality of nature.

That definition perfectly aligns with what I just told you and directly contradicts your point.
Then please tell me how I it can be factually messured or observed. I’m waiting.
We don’t have any measure by which to determine what is or is not moral truth. Still doesn’t make it any less real.
To give an analogy - whether or not there is some all-powerful being controlling everything in the universe. We have no way to measure whether or not there is. But there is still an objective truth. There either is, or there is not. Our inability to measure or determine it does not make the truth any less real. It simply means we do not know.
You seem to be fundamentally misunderstanding what “objective” means.
Objective (adj.)
(of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.
not dependent on the mind for existence; actual.
In other words: real, true, or factual
There is such a thing as objective morality, or moral truth.
Inability to determine what that is does not make it any less real.
So there exists an asbolute moral truth, but we have no way to determine what it is? I’m sure we can agree that morals don’t have a physical form, so in what way does it “exist”?
