    Seems my brain autofilled the concept in, with the post image being confused why someone would consider opposing morals to their own as terrible.

    “Moralality is subjective” is a common way to say “Well my morals are different than yours and that’s okay” to justify immoral behavior. With the image being confused about students acknowledging morals being culturally formed, while not entertaining debate on their own morals.

    Yes, morals are a subjective thing that only exist with a mind to perceive them.

    That doesn’t mean there aren’t right or wrong morals. That doesn’t mean anyone should entertain debate over the morality of whether, say for example, white supremacy is “just an opinion, bro”. There’s nothing confusing about acknowledging that it’s a mindset caused by culture, and also viewing it as a “moral monstrosity”.

    … I’m also posting these ramblings half asleep.
