that HTR conflicts with two widely held assumptions: moral rationalism (that moral wrongness entails a reason not to act) and moral absolutism (that some acts are wrong for anyone). Together these suggest there are reasons independent of an agent's actual desires. Responses include rejecting absolutism or rationalism (e.g., forms of relativism or error theory), or weakening internalism to counterfactual forms that do not depend on an agent's present psychology.
