See, that makes it sound NOT like objectivity, because of the way I've come to understand it, it shouldn't allow for dispute. But then that's why one of the main answers I got doing my research what 'it depends on what you mean by...' But then, if even the goddamn DEFINITION of objective is in dispute...fuck, man, now I hate that word.
Objectivity -fosters- dispute. Two people just bullshitting each other are not having a dispute, they're just bullshitting each other. It take facts to really fucking get into a good dispute with someone. The way you came to understand what an objective morality is was tainted, and you know who I blame for that one, lol.
