In analytic philosophy, anti-realism encompasses any position involving either the denial of an objective reality or the denial that verification-transcendent statements are either true or false.

Most of the people I speak with are anti-realist about pretty much everything, consciousness is usually the one thing people are realist about, and lots don't even buy that.
Value anti-realism is the most repugnant thing I've encountered, especially when it comes from people who are trying more than anyone else to reduce suffering in the world.
I don't think moral realism should be dismissed so casually.
