We can barely apply morality consistently within the same culture or society, almost as if morality is a tool for the powerful.

Yeah it's not easy. Societies are often multicultural, and each culture doesn't restrict individual values or smaller communities within it.

I wouldn't say it's just for the powerful, it can be a tool for the people too. The powerful do manipulate it for political reasons but ironically they themselves are mostly amoral.
