I'm writing a post to explain my stance. Secondly, I'm not even convinced emphasis on morality is consistent with most anarchic schools of thought (see Marx Stirner).

'most anarchic schools of thought'. Like the ones that inspired the bomb throwers of the turn of the century? Kropotkin, etc. Stirner was not far away from Nietzche in his position also. Radical individualism. But does reality have a consequence-less sandbox for us to throw around our will?

There is a big difference between the 'morality' of the herd and the morality of you standing alone under the sky with your own judgement upon yourself, when you have nobody to fool anymore.

Moral means right even if the whole world disagrees. Right on principle, right without any need of any other measure. Of course real life is much fuzzier. Difficulties can push you to violate your own codes, and lures and hope can make you fabricate entirely nonsensical schemes of values. But despite this, I think that there is an objective measure for morality, and it is not something that others can entirely judge, and there is plenty of history to show that the opposite can occur, when people have become numb to the wrong they do every day and it becomes normalised.

From outside people can easily see it. We are tasked not to be perfect but to strive towards better responses to events in our lives. Dodging serious questions and pretending that 'normal' is also 'moral' leaves you with no standing amongst those who seek to walk their talk.
