What complicates all this is the assumption that there is no such thing as "universal morality."
In that rapists, murderers and QB don't even know what they are doing is wrong, with the defence of sociopathy for the first two and cultural difference for the final defendant.
The trouble is, they ALL clearly know what they are doing is screwed up, otherwise the former 2 would not run in terror when the cops come knocking and the last one wouldn't even bother to be invisible to the everyday Muggles.
There is but ONE universal morality, that all three of the above types of evil losers KNOW but WILLFULLY ignore; one's duty to NEVER be complicit in the destruction of another being's welfare, dignity, happiness and life.
That alien-fleabag would not bother speaking in half truths (as opposed to the WHOLE truth from the get-go) and play chess from the shadows if he was REALLY convinced of the righteousness of its cause.
