Good comment, but… Have you read Three Worlds Collide? If you were in a situation similar to what it describes, would you still be calling your position moral realism?
I am not out to attack the position that humans fundamentally, generally align with humans. I don’t yet agree with it, its claim, “every moral question has a single true answer” might turn out to be a confused paraphrasing of “every war has a victor”, but I’m open to the possibility that it’s meaningfully true as well.

Yes and yes. I got very emotional when reading that. I thought rejecting the happiness… surgery or whatever it wast that the advanced alien species prescribed was blatantly insane.
