My impression is that I’m considerably less of a consequentialist than the average EA. Mostly I’m just pretty uncertain and so I put some stock in (some forms of) deontology and virtue ethics.
I’m a metaethical realist.
One’s obligations are context-sensitive, so I can’t say for sure what altruistic obligations others have. But for a person in my circumstances, I believe altruism (in many forms) is a moral obligation, one that I’m continually failing to fulfill.
