Is "create your own morality" just a hot meme?

No, it's correct. The fact that morality doesn't objectively exist is no reason not to have moral systems most people agree on.
People are too obsessed with trying to conjure up objectivity for morals.

My morality is to ruthlessly kill anyone who shares the same ideology as you. You simply cannot complain when i come and kill you.

There is not one single point to human morality if not all (100%) of humans agree on it.

Meant to say..

That may be your morality, but a great deal of people's morality includes creating a system that detains or executes people who wantonly murder people.
Your morality may be just as non-objective as mine, but mine has a majority of the people's consent and the ability to put in safeguards against people who share similar extremely unpleasant moralities.
We may not all share the exact same morality, but the bulk of us agree on that one point, that killing someone wantonly is bad and should be averted/punished.

So then you can agree, creating your own morality is not correct and what needs to be agreed upon is objective morality, like the punishment of wantonly murder.

No, because it's still not objective, just agreed upon. You're free to create a morality which involves the wanton slaughter of innocents, but unless you can convince enough people to agree with it, you're probably going to be stopped by people who don't want to let themselves be subjected to your morality

>>3040231
You understand you are using an objective morality to judge the basis of ones created morality?

>No, because it's still not objective, just agreed upon.
Here is your fault, obviously a morality that has 100% of people agreeing upon it becomes an objective morality.

>but unless you can convince enough people to agree with it, you're probably going to be stopped by people who don't want to let themselves be subjected to your morality
So then, holy shit, it's almost as if like creating your own morality is retarded and almost never works, unless of course it's a 1:1 "off shoot" of the standard human morality.

>stopped by people
No one should be stopping me if you believe I am able to create my own morality and live by it.

nietzsche said that the overman should create his own morality and we should follow whatever morality the ubermensch gave us

Fixed.

Existentialists don't get Nietzsche. They honestly think he meant, with a more complex methodology supporting the assertion, what Stirner was saying. They think Nietzsche is just a man who diagnosed the psychiatric condition behind various philosophies and religions and then vouched for this "independent, existentialist, create-your-own" way. They think guys like Sartre are just a watered down Nietzsche and/or that they are seriously "following up" with what Nietzsche wrote in some form.

That is wrong though. Nietzsche should be thought of as having more in relation to Plato and Christianity than is normally considered. The existentialists have nothing to do with him. He perceives his connection to the whole and understands life through this insight; the universe is spun from ourselves and ourselves from the universe, and all truths are woven simultaneously, both justified and annihilated in this unity. And through THAT experience, one that is so far-reaching into the depths of the soul and spirit that it appears esoteric and paradoxical to the inexperienced, does he derive his strength and spiritual freedom. Nietzsche does not abolish the existence of God; he becomes God without any further self-distinction. And that is the real meaning of the passage in which he describes the phenomenon of God's death.
