    Just so you know, this is called Moral Nihilism, and it seems to me about as useful as a physicist saying, “none of our models are 100% accurate, therefore they are all completely useless”.

    Like, yeah we agree that ethics is a construct we’ve invented, and no ethical system is perfect, and none of them ever will be. But that doesn’t translate to them all being useless. I know we’re living in a stressful time, and I understand the feeling of wanting to just flip the table and give up, but please recognize that as a purely emotional response, not a rational one.
