Moral Oughts

[John 6IX Breezy]

Once you know a.....and b, then sure. It’s a valid conclusion even if it isn’t a true conclusion.

This is just a restatement of realist commitments in -any- candidate truth statement.

We could write it out formally to show as much, but there’s little need. This, and related topics...such as the dictive indifference of logic, have already been discussed with you.

At length.

I'm not sure if you're responding to me (it doesn't say). We haven't had such a discussion. In any case, my confusion is that saying someone should be hit and saying they should be hit by you seem very different statements. One does not imply the other, I just don't know if both are valid conclusions.
