I am increasingly getting the perception that morality/ethics is useless hogwash.

Am not clear from your comment what your beef is.

The whole talk about morality seems to be nothing more than a signaling game.

No: morality is also to do with how to behave yourself and ways of manipulating others in addition to its signalling role.
