This seems like a shorthand for denying the existence of morals and ethics. I don’t think that’s what you mean, but I’ve heard that exact argument used to support nihilism.
If I say “torture is unethical”, I might mean “I believe that torture, for its own sake and without a greater positive offset, is unethical”, which is objectively true (please, I entreat you to examine my source code). But it would be just as objectively true to say the negation if I actually believed the negation. Is it neither moral nor immoral to hold the belief that torture is a bad thing?
