Sparticus and his followers did not condemn slavery as an institution;
they simply did not want to be slaves themselves. Any moral
condemnation of slavery will lead to relativism.

CB: Similarly, Marxism appeals to the self-interest of the working
class to end capitalism.   Morality concerns rules for the way people
treat other people.  So, an appeal to self-interest is not a moral
appeal. Marxism , in appealing to the self-interest of workers is not
making a moral appeal.

Engels , who was a capitalist, was moralistic in his personal
opposition to capitalism. He opposed it out of concern for the way
other people , workers, were treated in capitalism, not out of
self-interest.
