This is bogus and twisted morality
If a mother is helping her son dispose of victims murdered for no good reason then she is a piece of shit, despite her otherwise decent virtue of loyalty
Evil that is loyal to another evil is corrupted loyalty. The greater evil takes precedence over the corrupted virtue. They would both be put to death under a good and decent regime

Evil is subjective, because morality itself is subjective to a certain point: The Bhagavad Gita states that the only true "evil" in this world is failing to complete the virtue of your karma, whatever that may be, through laziness or cowardice, and indeed that every person being a transpiring, temporal being, will fall into doing both good and evil acts: But one
must become attached to neither, so that one must always be able to fulfill their prescribed duty to others, and purpose to self; Adi Shankaracharya in the
Brahmana Sutras stipulates that Good and evil ultimately have no real differentiation in the abstract (beginning
on pg 346), as they are both motivated by an inherent self-interest, and that the only real good is that which brings you closer to a universal knowledge and liberation from all attachments and emotions, and evil being the laziness associated with avoiding this realisation.
I often use the example of the Mesoamericans sacrificing youths in extremely painful ways as an example of 'evil' in one sense, but then to them, it was the ultimate good because the only worthy sacrifice they could think of to give retribution to the world and sustenance is the one thing they valued and loved the most:
their own children.
Evil is subjective, because morality itself is subjective, due to purpose being subjective, and that doing what we can to follow our own path is the only absolute objective. That's truly the way I see it.
