You wrote; "Don't mistake cultism and lack of thinking for good morals". Morality has little to do with 'cultism' and lack of thinking anymore then good thinking and an independent mind. Please do not infer that I would confuse the two.

Your honesty is startling because I never expected you'd admit to your participation in Trump cultism which has required a complete lack of independent thinking. Given your nature, I doubt it would have cost you much personally to admit to "a lack of morals", given that morals are something you see as a weakness affecting others. As you note people burdened by morals simply lack the imagination to adopt their own pseudo-morals like the Virtuous Victorian Values which created the first concentration death camps. I'm confident you fully researched a number of different "moral codes" before adopting VVV, a code of conduct which gives you far more latitude for all manner of behavior others might find suspect than most other codes of conduct. It must have been gratifying to find such a flexible value system in New Zealand's past rather than adopting a code of values which might have had you dressed up as an Aztec adherent of other historic system which would make you more of a sartorial spectacle.
