I wish that were true. The single "subjectivist" here doesn't seem to be able
to support his position at all.

I could easily quote you many of the arguments of the subjectivists, even though
I certainly fall more into the objectivist camp. The problem here is that the
original poster can't even put together a coherent discussion of the topic. It
appears that we are (as the saying goes) "engaging in a battle of wits with an
unarmed man".
