Moral realism vs. relativism
Reality is established by truth.
Truth is what establishes right from wrong.
There are two sides of the equation: objective reality and one's subjective perception of reality.
The basic axiom that establishes right from wrong for interaction between individuals, is objectively established:no one has the right to violate another's individual rights and sovereignty. One has the right to act as long as they don't violate another's individual rights and sovereignty.
The basic axiom that establishes right from wrong for one's actions, is subjectively established, by one's subjective perception of reality. Whether something is positive or negative, is in the eye of the beholder, because one person's lust is an other person's disgust.
The only way one can get someone else to do what they want is to provide a positive benefit, so we can get their consent.
We live in two paradigms of "right from wrong" and "might makes right". We are born in the collectivist paradigm of a parent/child relationship where we do not have authority because we can not be held responsible for our actions. This paradigm is right, because nature has given the parent an inherent instinct to take care of their young. Once we become the age of mental maturity, we accept adulthood, where we accept responsible for the authority over our own actions. Once we have achieved adulthood, the parent/child relationship becomes a master/slave relationship, which becomes wrong.
The problem is, we currently live in a collectivist paradigm of "GOD said" where there are adults that want to live in perpetual childhood looking for their parents (external control) and their are those that are sociopathic tyrant criminals that perpetrate the master/slave relationship, creating the fraud of "might makes right", so they can benefit from the collective control.
The Declaration of Independence was the first time individuals tried to establish a society based on adulthood, creating an individualistic paradigm of control, but it has reverted back to a society controlled by an organized crime syndicate of sociopathic tyrant criminals trying to play the role of parent.
