Exactly, when you’re recognize wrong here, your not saying something about your emotional state, but about a reality external to it.
Right and wrong/good and bad when it comes to morality, at least in some cases are objective truths, about a reality external to your emotional state.
You recognize/see that good and bad in regards to morality aren’t the same as when you speak of good and bad when it comes to your taste in food, or movies. They are not expressions of your biological state.
