Noncognitivism is the form of ethical nihilism that is incoherent and it's incoherent because it says that moral statements are neither true nor false. But nothing can be neither true nor false. Clear?
It's impossible for ethical nihilism to express anything normatively from the point of view of ethical nihilism because from the point of view of ethical nihilism there are no normative expressions. Clear?
Until you are able to grasp these very basic points I'm not going to waste my time responding to the rest of what you say.
