Is morality real or am I just programmed to be weak?

Is there such a thing as justice or is there just realised anger?

I think that if you examine your moral feelings, you will realise that they aren't really logically consistent and stem from evolutionary drives. This implies nihilism, but you should probably still live according to your moral scruples as far as you can, or you'll hate yourself.

i think there is a rational argument for morality, which is just that amongst the population there are probably people who if you met them you'd respect and hope they live a good life. In fact amongst 8 billions there are probably a shit ton of people: the average person only talks to about 25000 across their lifetimes divided by 8000000000 = 0.0003125% of the population, chances are whoever you like the most in your life right now isn't even in the top 100 million people on earth of people who you'd like the best. And for the sake of argument imagine who rank #1 on that list is, thats gotta be your waifu tier love of your life person.

The reason you should stay moral is basically to improve the world for those people / that person. Every time you do a negative action to somebody it may affect one of those people directly, or cascade and affect them indirectly. Sure you can take shortcuts in life, rob people or whatever, but ask yourself are the money really worth potentially hurting these people?
