Can both points not be true? There will be local morals and social morals that differ from place to place with overarching morals that tend to be everywhere.

Not all morals or beliefs have to be unshakable or viewed as morally reprehensible for disagreement.

Unless they mean all their ethics are held that way in which case that's just the whole asshole in a different deck chair joke.

If you agree that morals are relative and culturally constructed, then you shouldn't reject differences in morals of others as immoral.

That's basically just taking a position where you want to be able to change your mind on what's "moral", and expect everyone else to follow your opinion on it.

I said that some are but it seems cultures share a couple of them in common like not killing without cause. So in that system there are local morals and global/regional morals.
