Here we go again............lol.
If a person says to you that it is well demonstrated that people’s opinions of what is or isn’t good do not agree, descriptive moral subjectivity- you will insist, then, that they are metaphysical subjectivists.
The two are nit the same position.
If, otoh, they say no, you will contend that their moral assertions only matter if someone cares, and then refer back to descriptive subjectivism ( disagreement) as an argument that their opinion that there are morally relevant facts ( the realist position) is “subjective”.
You’ve gone through this bit in every thread you’ve been in. Heads you win, tails they lose.....trouble is, you’re getting literally everything entirely wrong.
- and that, like people’s perception of their moral statements, is a fact.
Meanwhile, your position is that good comes from a sky wizard, and that without sky wizards there would be no good. You dislike this description because it’s perjorative, not because it’s inaccurate.
Can you see how the lack of a commitment to accuracy and a set of standard designations is all of the steam in your tank?
