People don’t like lots of things. Why should that matter to anyone else? Some people like to harm others. Some like to see that.
I've explained that my premise is that human wellbeing is paramount. Therefore I oppose human suffering.

This is based in my empathy & compassion. Doesn't matter if the universe doesn't care abt humans. Humans do.

If something bigger & more intelligent than humans said that torturing babies was moral, should I accept this?
-
I don't. I go with the core moral emotions unique to humans & value human life & wellbeing.

That's a fine goal. All I was asking is why that should be a measure of morality and the question who cares if they suffer
-
Its consistent among humans to wish to avoid suffering & obtain comfort & to empathise with others' suffering or joy.
-
It's a purely human thing. I am not claiming these moral emotions exist independently of humans or matter in any grand scheme.
