I think that the use of low-key, non-provocative slogans like these is the way to go. By now there's plenty of experience of the fact that even these kinds of slogans cause some strong reactions. It's good to get the message out, break the taboo, but maintain the high moral ground. Look, nothing here is offensive. It is simply a reasonable statement, expressed with calm and civility.
I agree that "moral or ethical" is a bit strange. But there is endless confusion as to what these words mean and what difference there is, if any. In that context, it's an oddity that I can accept.
