Moral Superiority

[Gallstones]

What is it?
Is it a real thing?
Does it exist?
Is it ubiqutous across time and culture?

How can you recognize it when you see it?

If it is a real thing, where did it come from?

[Gawdzilla Sama]

As morality is conditional on your society I would say there is a pretty big problem with saving one's morality is superior to another's. It's all subjective. Is it moral to eat a cow? Is it more moral to starve to death, leaving your infants to starve without you?

[Coito ergo sum]

Morality is opinion.

Morality is a fear driven expedient and agent of control.


Might it be, inherent, in that it tends to occur in groups of social animals because it has survival value?

Excellent.

How about power, does power establish morality or decide what is superior?

Also, it is true then, that enough people are passive/lazy/stupid enough to swallow the propaganda without thinking about it and the moral standards get established?

I think some people build power first, then start getting the money.

Money and power are pretty much synonymous.
