Loving this definition of objective that involves lots of people thinking something is or isn't a certain quality.

You know what someone means when they call an artwork objectively ugly, though.

There are 2 possible rebuttals to this, and one is much more interesting than the other.

The interesting one is "Here is the beauty to be found in the art."

The boring one is "No, subjectivity is an attribute of ugliness, therefore 'objectively ugly' is a contradiction. QED."

The boring answer always works. You don't even need to know what artwork is being discussed.

Yeah if there is no such thing as objectively better there is also no such thing as talent and therefore all art is worthless because banksy is no better at art than a toddler.

its nonsense

This is true. Even though personal taste overrides what's "objectively better" all the time, there is still "objectively bad" art.
