There's a simple rebuttal from the moral particularist: That it's very intuitive to them, and that's all that's necessary to endorse it. You are welcome to raise as many points against it as you wish, but if their intuitions are strong enough, then these objections just aren't going to be good enough.

Like any philosophical topic, once we grant carte blanche to intuitions, an intuition can always be arbitrarily stronger than any defeaters against the position held on intuitive grounds.
