There are commonly held moral systems to every culture, of which atheists are just as much a part as theists.
That’s the observation of descriptive moral relativism.
It’s also been observed that regardless of the above, people don’t tend to think that their moral views actually are relative, even when they describe them as such.
Most people, which includes atheists, are no better than you have been at accurately describing whatever moral structure they hold ( assuming they’ve ever given it much thought in the first place....which they haven’t, as a rule).
I’m only a spokesman for the accurate communication and description of moral positions as they define themselves. So, for example, when an atheist says “morality is subjective” and then describes what they mean by that, I can point out that they haven’t described subjectivism in that explanation. Just as I can inform you that you have failed to describe objectivity or realism, or any barrier to either in atheism.
Insomuch as you say there isn’t much of a difference between your moral philosophy and others, you are plain and simply wrong. The only reason a productive discussion can’t be had about those differences is that you refuse to voice and certify them. Compounding this, you lack the vocabulary and subject knowledge to have such a discussion even if you wanted to......which you don’t.
