It is probable that your perception and acceptance of certain things as good and bad may not reflect your own perspective. Is it not that you choose the good and the bad according to 'yourself and social constructions' in particular, without taking into account 'what is universally good and bad' in general?

Have you ever realized or tried to notice that some of the things you consider right and wrong, true and false, and justifiable and non-justifiable might also be because of the fact that you are under the influence of imposed prejudices and have preconceived notions about them?

Some ideas have been positively and negatively accepted universally by humans. But the process of normalization and denormalization with regard to certain ideas might be the result of creations shaped by the thoughts of humans having tendencies of 'taking sides', 'tilting towards specific positions more', and 'taking care of their interests' resulting in the emergence of a biased outlook. Humans, as a part of social structures, have made you think this way, ensuing the development of your consciousness accordingly, the corollary of which can be seen in the responses you choose to make.

On the very same hand, this also needs to be kept in mind, deliberated upon, and taken into consideration that there might be some things that are actually good and bad in nature, but the above-mentioned tendencies of humans as part of social structures make you acknowledge their contradictory meanings only, and so you do accept them with these contrary interpretations most of the time knowingly and less of the time unknowingly, despite the fact that you know the distinction between good and bad, truth and untruth in general, but your mind has accepted the created notions regarding this fundamental moral question associated with good and bad, truth and untruth in particular, subconsciously.

Have you realized this?
