I think what Dan means is that different kinds of minds in different kinds of community might need quite different solutions to the problem of interacting effectively, which might lead to quite different notions of morality, and that if that's true then you shouldn't expect any single notion of morality to be universally applicable.
Or they might not. It isn't at all obvious.
