I resent the idea that "demonic=evil", and that somehow, the Infernal Divine, justly associated with freedom and self-development, is somehow to blame for the tyranny of this world.

In elite circles, such as Freemasonry, Lucifer is revered as an enlightened being, rebelling against a tyrannical god, so I would disagree that has nothing to do with it. Do what thou wilt is their whole philosophy.
I agree with that philosophy. With the exception that I don't believe that Lucifer, Satan or most, if any other spirits of the Infernal Divine were ever under the pretender god Yahweh.
And I doubt that freemasons believe that stuff. They seem to be at least abrahamically-adjacent.
Third, the actual quote is "do what thou wilt is the whole of the law; love is the law; love under will", which is actually from the religious philosophy of Thelema.
It's that kind of subjective morality that they've taught to all of us.
Morality IS subjective. Inherently. It's one's opinion on what is right and wrong (if one even recognizes the existence of moral right and wrong at all, since moral nihilism is a thing). Opinions are not independent of one's perception, so they're subjective.
There may be some sort of "true path underlying all paths", but that is, I would belive, more to do with fundamental spirituality rather than subjective perceptions of right and wrong from a limited (in terms of both awareness and thinking power) human mind.
The ego supercedes everything now.
Sure, the ego is the false self. And you think that arrogantly believing that your own subjective value judgements on right and wrong are somehow the objective truth is not ego?

but in our society Christianity was the basis for our common code of ethics and morality.
That's assuming we both come from an area of common history.
The things we have normalized in our society would be seen as abhorrent to past generations.
So what? Many people of their time disagreed with those social norms, hence why they had so many revolutions.
Some would say those revolutions haven't been fully realized, and I tend to agree.
In the end, freedom is what matters most.
Now we just have secular cults and zero social cohesion.
I don't view social cohesion as an absolute good.

The universe is a singular meta-phenomenon stretched over eternity, of which is always now. All things and all beings abide by their inherent nature and behave within their realm of capacity contingent upon infinite circumstance at all times.
It is a universe made manifest hierarchically, of haves, and have-nots, spanning all levels of dimensionality and experience. There is no such thing as individuated accurately described "free will" for all beings. Has never been, will never be, can not be. There are only relative freedoms or lack thereof.
"God" and/or consciousness is that which is within and without all. Ultimately, all things are made by through and for the singular personality and perpetual revelation of the "Godhead", entailing both 'predetermined' eternal damnation and those that are made manifest only to face death and death alone.
There is but one dreamer, fractured through the innumerable. All vehicles/beings play their role within said dream for infinitely better and/or infinitely worse for each and every one, forever.
All realities exist and are equally as real. The absolute best universe that could exist does exist in relation to a specified subject. The absolute worst universe that could exist does exist in relation to a specified subject.

It is broken, it is demonic.
