That's taking it too far, since moral is very much dependent on the particular society. It's fair to say we're supposed to act in way fitting our social group. If everyone did that, the world still wouldn't reach an ideal state.
Oh, no doubt. I'm talking about one's imagined view of an ideal state, not an actual one.
