if there is no right or wrong ( "On the genealogy of morals") then there is no good and evil ("beyond good and evil"). It's all artificial, so we cna't claim anything higher of ground than an opinion is what it means. We can't say "that's wrong!" becuase nothing is inherently wrong. We can say "i think that's wrong" or whatever, but we have to recognize that it's subjective to personal ethics. Ethics is a creation of humanity and is nothing mroe than an opinion, and i don't like how people make it out ot be so pandemic and universal. They restrict what i can or can't do for the sake of something we call morality, when i should be able to do wahtever i want. I should be able to kill someone, someone should be able to kill me, no one has rights, and it's fine that we live in an artificial world of civilization...but i don't like it all the time. Granted, if we lived in the animalism i'm describing we'd not be as progressed as we are and such, so i like it in a sense and i like being alive i guess...but it bothers me when people try and claim a moral high ground, which effectually becomes something everyone can empathize with because i can't because i don't think morality exists.
i recommend you read those books i outlined above in parenthesis if you are interested enough to do so. They summate a lot of how i think in some aspects, they're both by Friedrich Nietzsche, i like hiim a lot, he's a smart guy.
