thats exactly what it is, I'm speaking on the human ability to suspend morality in the moment for some misplaced greater sense of the concept. Like a radical christian killing her child before the age of accountability to guarantee him a spot in heaven. The motivation behind carrying out immoral behavior in a flawed act of self perceived justice is a driving factor in how most people end up suspending present moment morality to carry out an otherwise immoral act, and every society uses that logic to some degree from justifying war to allowing some to feel justified in pepper spraying people with trump hats on. I see society having large implications on the actual sense of morality in a population, speaking on a nation-by-nation basis.
