I was responding to a question on why have morals if they have no application.

If don’t like this example, how about folks going to church on Sundays listening to the Christian morals on not killing each other and during the week, these same folks work at the DoW organising wars around the world.

Or the politician taking lobbyists money. Or those folks who engage in recreational drug use while fighting a “war on drugs”.

There are many examples of morals playing second fiddle to the broader world around us.

And in every case there are people like you making excuses for them. Engineers working at OpenAI are not scraping by to provide for their families. They don't get a pass to do unethical things to keep their jobs.
