And it is our job as human beings to ascertain which justifications are valid and which aren't.

You can't run away from object-level moral arguments. You just can't.

I am very much a moral realist. There are correct and incorrect moral stances.

Any human response that can be considered evil by simply who it is applied to…is an evil response all the time. People may justify that evil by their feeling they have the “correct” moral stance, but it’s still evil and shitty to the target group. Personally, I am not willing to participate in an intentional evil to any group even if I disagree with them r are different from them. If that makes me immoral, so be it.
