    My friend, you don’t know what you don’t know.

    Websearch “is morality a human construct” and have your awareness opened to literally thousands of years of philosophical discourse.

    Experience life outside your bubble and learn that what is “right” in one community is taboo in another.

        My friend, I am really trying not to be condescending but you seem to be struggling to comprehend what I am saying. Your own definition supports me.

        “What people think is good and bad” is exactly my point. What I think as an ex-christian in Eastern United States, born in the decade in which I was born, experiencing all I have experienced, all influences what I believe to be right or wrong in OPs scenario.

        A person on the other side of the world from a different culture, different religion, a different demographic, different political experiences, may have an entirely different view on right or wrong here.

        Different people think different things and philosophers have debated what this means about morality since before Plato in 400 BCE.
