Who says violence isn't good? How is "good" even defined?

Relativity. If someone doesn't accept the basis of all relativity and carries absolute sense of anything at all in reality, then they cannot accept reality as they think absolute=absolve and regardless of witnessing anything, nothing matters.

It’s defined however I say it is defined, with myself taking full authority and responsibility for my own definition of good.

I define it to be the utilitarian definition, selected and preferred by many because it has the stated goal of maximizing happiness of the most people. I think it’s a formal way of stating what most people intuitively recognize as “good.”
