Realism - facts about an act.
Subjectivism - facts about a person
Relativism - facts about a group
Do you think that the thing that makes something bad is the designation by the group, such that whatever they designated as bad, is bad..,.and whatever they don’t, isn’t? Not as a comment on how they might see it, but literally as how it is.
No, I don’t think that. And, thank you for clarification with the definitions. I’m not overly familiar with the terminology here, but I’ve already jumped in the water, so it’s sink or swim. ?

Again, no. I don’t think that. I do think that well-being, or at least minimizing suffering, is a morally acceptable goal for any group based on the fact that we are all physical, living beings capable of being harmed and experiencing pain. I don’t think that’s an unreasonable or tenuous platform to leap from. It certainly doesn’t require any god.
