I know you asked me other questions, but seeing your response here I can tell you right off the bat that no answer to any question is going to help you understand moral realism if you see things like factual consequences as subjective.
Just as realism contends that something about x makes it “really bad”., not an opinion, factual consequences will really happen, they’re not just an opinion.
I would like to here Grandizer take on his oughts, but the way I see it they’re all based on his own personal fears, insecurities and hangups, fear of getting caught, fear of feeling guilty etc...
They are subjective because these are subjective to him, but not those of us who don’t share the same fears and anxieties here. The risk of getting caught are so slow, a fear of getting caught, going to jail, jeopardizing my reputation are nonexistent for me.
