"我知道什么是好的道德,但是当你生活在一个疯狂、糟糕的世界里时,你应该无视好的道德。"

Simplified Meaning:

People usually understand the difference between what is right and wrong. However, in difficult or chaotic situations, they sometimes feel like they need to ignore their sense of right and wrong to survive or get by. Take, for instance, someone who loses their job and feels desperate. They might end up stealing food to feed their family even though they know it's wrong. This quote suggests that in a messed-up world, people might feel forced to break their own moral rules. It's like saying everyone knows they shouldn't lie, but in some tough situations, they might lie to protect themselves or someone they care about. So, in extreme circumstances, people might act against their better judgment to cope with a messed-up reality.
