morality is subjective and people don't have free will

I don't see why that makes a difference. If it's someone you care about being made fun of, you're going to be offended on their behalf. Regardless of how powerful they are, it doesn't change your human feelings of protectiveness for those you care about.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
