So we are discussing wellbeing then, and that’s a given? Like I said, this is a narrow subset of what I would more generally describe as morality. Of course we can make factual statements about how actions affect wellbeing, at least in a vague sense, since wellbeing is not easy to define.
So all we’ve done, just like I said, is to skip the initial value-setting step. We’ve been prescribed values.
Does moral realism only concern itself with this branch of morality then, or does it apply to any value set? If it applies to any values, then we're back to deciding which are the best values, which is entirely circular.
