This version of moral subjectivism is criticized because it implies that moral statements are expressions of personal approval or disapproval, which makes genuine moral disagreement or debate difficult. If moral statements are just expressions of personal preference, then there is no objective basis for arguing over them, as they are reduced to matters of individual taste rather than issues that can be rationally discussed or resolved.
