That is what I believe. I think murdering a child is morally horrific because our morals are subject to both behavioral norms and biological drives, both of which reinforce that moral value. If it were objectively wrong then animals wouldn’t have developed strategies to protect their young because there wouldn’t be a need. If you think it is somehow more morally wrong for a human to do that to another human as compared to an ant colony finding some larva to snack on then it isn’t objective. It is subjective and as such it is a widely held and fiercely defended opinion.

You can't have moral actions without moral culpability, and you can't assign culpability to those unable to understand morality. Being with no moral culpability are morally neutral.

You're also straying into the naturalism fallacy.

I don't know the answer here. My Mom's unvaccinated neighbor in St George died this past week from a delta variant coronavirus infection.

I don't know enough about him to say it was because of any particular source of bad information. I don't think there is so much bad information on this topic because of these 12 people but because of there is such an appetite for it.

The thing you are describing is 'subjectivity'. You are arguing against your own earlier position of 'objectivity'. I'm glad we could come to an agreement that morals are subjective.
 
Maybe this is where we’re heading. Never saw the film, enjoyed the opening clip at this link. Maybe if Marjorie Taylor Greene is elected president some day, we will have arrived, hahaha….we’re just transitioning to the era of stupidity. Well, Trump demonstrated that, lol…

Mike Judge critiques the nonsense of the modern world in this dystopian 2006 comedy – which, in 2021, feels more like a documentary

It really is pretty good and hard to believe the parallels sometimes.

As for spreading disinformation, I wish everyone from all walks of life would just seek out different opinions to help make themselves more well-rounded. These 12 people are just normal people with no formal training or certification, but they have a sphere of influence and a pulpit in which to shout it.

Social media has legitimately made disinformation a hobby.

People are generally afraid of differing opinions. It makes them feel uncomfortable. Hence twitter, the ultimate bastion for confirmation bias and group think. Not to mention mob mentality and bullying. And all that so people don't have to consider differing opinions.

Sometimes animals eat their young.

I can appreciate not understanding the difference between an action being immoral and the actor being culpable. These are distinctions that have to be examined, weighed, and discussed to be understood and appreciated.

Unfortunately, you then followed it up with a sentence that gives every indication you don't want to think about it, you just wanted to make a smug comeback. Your disinterest has been noted.
