It is possible to think something is wrong and still do it, in fact I think it is common on some of the “smaller” things
I just don’t believe people think through consciously why they do a lot of things, they just do them
Re situational ethics - are you saying that that is what the anti-realist has?
That's a semantic question. From a practical standpoint, an anti-realist makes choices which have a moral dimension situationally. I don't think it matters whether that dimension is real or not.
Possibly, I haven’t really read anything on normative ethics so am thoroughly ignorant on that side. It is the metaethics that interest me at the moment.
