Morality fundamentally doesn't work due to subjectiveness

Legality and morality are different things. Its legal to lie but some would say it’s immoral. Of course you could say it’s immoral to break the law but that’s still a different thing.

To me objective morality makes the most sense. When you look at the purpose of morality which is to create the greatest good for humans on an individual and social level then compare that with the universal fact that enjoyment looks the same on a neurotransmitter level for all people then it only makes sense that morals would be universal. It’s kind of an odd argument and not the strongest one but it’s enough for me. We all basically enjoy the same things on a fundamental level so again, to me that would require morals to be universal.
