I don’t think the universe itself cares about morality and what we do—so, in this sense, no, probably not objective
But I also despise the notion that anyone can just come up with a value system where forced female genital mutilation (don’t ask) is ok. Just no. Fuck that system. I think it’s a reasonable approximation that there is some value system that is the ideal “true” one for all humanity and we have been moving closer to it through history. In this sense, I think there is (to a good approximation) an intersubjective system / an “objective” system for humanity.
(We can also make an argument from moral uncertainty that if there is no objective morality, it basically doesn’t matter what we do. But if there is, it matters a lot since we are gaining/losing utils with our actions. So, even if there is a relatively small chance of objective morality existing, it’s still worth to act as if objective morality exists—which, I think, means you should act on your best guess of what the objective morality is.)
