For you, it's everything that you think is right.
Yes and no.
Yes from an artificial human construct. But no in the context that evolutionary survival in social species leans to protecting the group. In evolution, survival is hard wired, and while some species of life are more solitary, with mammals like elephants and chimps the social aspect rose to group cooperation.
Even with dangerous animals like gators, I wouldn't try fucking with a female's nest.
Male lions will fight rivals to keep them away from their harem of females, and murder the cubs of rival males. But the lioness's will group to protect cubs.
Morality is subjective yes, but from the point of the individual empathy for one's own arises too. The lion will socialize with other lions but have no empathy for the baby antelope it kills to eat. Humans are no different. But the advantage we do have that we don't use widely enough worldwide, is a natural understanding of our own species behaviors. If more humans could see the long term bigger picture at a global scale, we could understand more that we are not as different as we would like to think. Religion distorts our natural behaviors and turns them into super hero vs super villain comics.
