      The entire purpose of a moral compass is to not be subjective. I didn’t make the claim that everyone should, or does, live by one set guideline. You did

        Morality to some degree HAS to be subjective as its based on the time period it is formed. Society progresses for a reason

          “My rights end where yours begin” is not subjective, as one easy example.

              That’s not universal across all societies.

              Historically, getting away with murder has been a privilege certain classes received.

        The idea that morality is entirely based on subjectivity is your personal opinion. You can’t use it as if it was a fact and ground your argument upon it like you could do with an actual fact.
