Take a test. I actually implied that twice.

Goodwin's law in action.

The key words are all there.

Those that become truly amoral are free to become politicians, lawyers or telephone marketing salespeople and reap the windfall of their lack of moral restraint. You are beginning to sound like a follower of Ayn Rand.

I give you one thing: at least you're really thinking about the important things.  I'll answer with an illustration.  Let's say you bought a brand new Ferrari and it's in your driveway right now.  There are many ways you can display, drive and maintain your beautiful car.  The manufacturer gave you a detailed, leather-bound owner's manual, but you can choose to ignore it and choose your own methods.  You can choose to use Jack Daniels for fuel, tap water as a lubricant, and experiment with many different brands of tires.  You can choose to decide your own maintenance schedule.  You can wax it with sand, it's your supercar, you can do what you want.

    But in reality, if you choose to go outside the manufacturer's recommended methods, your car won't stay in good condition.  These same rules apply to anything in life.  If you go against the natural or designed flow of things, the quality of your experience will quickly diminish.  This is not to say your freedom is restricted.  You have many choices of color schemes for your car.  You can have manual or automatic transmission and you can mod it to your heart's content.  But the basic rules of mechanics can't be broken without repercussions.   Human morals are nothing other than rules that guide humanity to a smooth and happy life.  Disregarding them, your prerogative it may be, will lead to causing harm to yourself and others around you.  This has been proven time and again over human existence.  There is nothing you can try that hasn't been tried (and failed) before.  You are young and inexperienced.  Youths often challenge the accepted norms in society.  If you are wise, you will learn from others who have been there before.

I submit that it's not good morals that you have a beef with. I think your rebellion is with corrupt human society. In this regard, I can't say I blame you.

Isn't Kant the usual go to for this subject, and not Neitzche...although nobody can even understand what Neitzche means half the time, and the other half the time he means what ever the reader wants it to mean...

Firstly - 'amoral' is not the same thing as 'immoral'... it is quite possible to be a 'good' person in the eyes of those around you, and still be amoral. That is not a contradiction.

'Immoral' means knowing what the moral values of a society are (and perhaps, one adheres to them in general) but chooses to flaunt them. 'Amoral' means not choosing to accept society's values at all, and creating your own set of values of 'right and wrong' (whether you accept the terms or not... such terms can merely be 'useful to me, vs not useful to me' or similar!) So, 'good' and 'amoral aren't contradictory.

There's a philosophical line (Kant?? maybe not... ) about self interests...two related views were "One should only act in one's perceived self-interests", and the other was " one CAN ONLY act in one's perceived self-interests". I personally believe the second!! Which is why, in your OP, I'd say that NO-ONE does something that they 'know' is wrong... they know that society's mores and values say what is wrong, but for those people, they 'know' that they are an exception to that rule (like Chinese drivers...).

Depending on how you choose to act, yes, you would be considered a 'sociopath'... if your actions are considered 'wrong' by society... (however, see above).

Nietzche's 'superman' only rejected values created by others to control others (such as religion). He certainly did NOT reject the idea of creating one's own values - and, in fact, it is this creation of personal value, and acting upon it, that makes one a 'superman'.

One value, however, that you seem to have chosen - along with the rest of humanity - is that you are more important than virtually every other human being alive.... AND that a human's value is intrinsically more important than any other living being's existence... AND that life has greater value that anything seen as not alive.

May I suggest, as the free-thinker you seem to think you are, you make your first priority the ensurance that you are actually correct in the basis of your primary value... are you sure you're more important than everybody, and everything, else? That there isn't something that has more value in the multi-verse.... ie, the primary value is 'truth' (your own).

(for myself, yes, I have sociopathic ideologies... if it takes the death of 1 CEO to save the whales, I don't see what the problem is... and similar arguments).

  I accept them, rather than believe in them as such, in that I play the game and I don't eat babies, the reason being that I believe to do so would drive me mad. Is it wrong to eat babies? If it is I guess I shouldn't eat lamb. Is a human baby of more value than a lamb? Not if you're the lamb. Do human babies taste good with mint sauce? Unfortunately yes.

Would it benefit Chinese mainland society if its culture believed in moral absolutes and valued the pursuit and cultivation of virtue?

Look at China and its history. People did really bad things here. They went too far, and can only subsist by isolating themselves from the rest of the world, indoctrinating their own people and sacrificing freedoms, liberties and quality of life. The rest of the world doesn't trust China, they have only the worst allies, and their behaviour is notorious throughout the world. The only people who speak highly of China have little experience with the people and are mystified with feel-good propaganda and/or optimistic economic stories. This is what happens when you disregard ethics. They are unwritten rules of the "game" we play. You want to cheat? I hope it was worth it - now the rest of the kids don't want to play with you anymore.

This only applies outside of China of course. Inside the Dictatorship/Playground for the Rich, the honest people must Smile Or Die. Cheaters rule here, critical thought is absent, rule of law is a facade, hospitals are corrupt and greedy. If you ask yourself: Why not do what I want if no one knows? Because you will keep on doing it and eventually someon will know and tell others. And you need only look around your host country to see the consequences. They are staring you in the face (like retards)!

I believe a society will only function if it is subject to a shared moral codec. Like China is.
