Sounds like you don't know what the word opinion means. Hint: literally any statement based on morality is an opinion.
That's an opinion, though. Not a fact. It's actually just one theory in ethics.
The definition of what an opinion is is not an opinion.
No, but this is an opinion:
No, it's not. Facts are statements about what is. Statements about what should be—which is what moral statements are—are always opinions.
I can't fucking believe I'm arguing with people who literally don't know what the word opinion means. It's not rocket science.
Perhaps you should read about more about the different theories surrounding whether morality is always objective "as a fact".
