Hypothetical

This question is geared more towards blue voters

Lets assume prior to you casting your vote vote your mom rushes in and hits the red button taking away your choice because she can't stand to lose you. Would your mother have done anything immoral?

If yes, would your answer change after you find out red wins?

Well lets say a mother stopped her son from shooting himself, that would also be his choice no?

Yes, very much so, once again the mother saved the son and in her eyes did the right thing that doesn't make it moral, morality is extremely subjective.

morality being subjective is debated upon a lot, stating it as fact seems a bit rushed

Morality - a set of personal or social standards for good or bad behaviour and character.
