Another way: morality is always in the context of your wants versus society. Society is an objective fact here, as is yourself. That you want to live your life

Another way: morality is always in the context of your wants versus society. Society is an objective fact here, as is yourself.
That you want to live your life is a given. In order to avoid bad backlash from society you might objectively choose to adopt some moral behaviors.
Discourse about morality is unnecessarily complicated by historical things that we don’t want to shine a light on, like slavery and the treatment of women. We can’t explain why we have been talking about morality for millennia but haven’t come to the conclusion that our treatment of others matters.
