“Objective morality” as we know it from mainstream liberal ethics is a lie of the bourgeoisie to discourage revolutionary action by presenting the working class with a false set of “rights” that they have due to them simply being “naturally occurring in the universe.”
Rights such as the “freedom of speech”, the right to “own property” and “freedom of religion” seem harmless and perhaps even beneficial to most. After all who does not want more rights? Who does not want to have such things put into law? Well the reality is that all of this favors the bourgeoisie far more than the proletariat and the presence of such things is harmful to the workers of the country.
For instance, freedom of speech is said to be generally good because it allows free exchange of ideas. However, this in reality allows the bourgeoisie who control news outlets and broadcast to have disproportionate access to influence individuals. Similarly, owning property seems harmless until you realize that the bourgeoisie can artificially drive prices up and down at their convenience because they own so much property compared to most working class individuals who do not even own a single home.
Freedom of religion is also similar, in the sense that the bourgeoisie are free to utilize different religions as a form of dividing the proletariat to conflict against each other, as well as utilizing religion to make them more docile as they no longer fear being lesser because they will have “paradise at the end” it also makes the proletariat less likely to start a revolution. After all, most religions view violence as something bad so you will not see nearly as many religious members committing acts of violence.
What I said can be applied to every “natural right”. It is all an illusion on paper, look at the material reality around you. Does it feel like you are truly free when you must go to work for hours, come home feeling alienated and exploited only to repeat it day after day for the rest of your lifetime? Are you truly happy like this knowing that nearly everyone else is like you, all while the bourgeoisie do not work and live off your success. They party, they write the rules, they benefit off of them, and they leech off of the workin class to do this. And then they have the gall to call their way of governance “just” and “free” when thousands die annually because of them due to malnutrition.
Don’t know about you, but I certainly cannot live like this.
