What is the metaethical meaning of 'should'? In my view to say it means that an action decreases or prevents harm.
For example "You should do X" means "Doing X decreases or prevents harm".
More specifically, decreases or prevents suffering overall.
What about yourself? What is your metaethics like? And, more specfically, again: What do you think the metaethical meaning of 'should' is? Do you think that there is one? Aside from a mere dictionary definition, I mean. Is there a non-circular ontology? Is there an ostensive definition for it? Or are you a non-cognitivist? Or not?
