Domestic violence is harmful and wrong. Abusive partners have reason to change their ways. Many of us assume that these normative claims and many others like them are true. But what makes normative claims true? One answer is that they are made true by ordinary natural facts. For example, the abusive partner has reason to change their ways because their abuse causes pain. While abuse undoubtedly causes pain, notice that this answer fails to explain why the fact that an action causes pain constitutes a reason against it. An adequate explanation of the truth of normative claims requires that we appeal to facts over-and-above ordinary natural facts-that is, we need to appeal to non-natural, irreducibly normative facts, for instance that pain is bad. Yet on the face of things, to believe that there are non-natural, irreducibly normative facts can seem extravagant, mysterious, and incompatible with a clearheaded scientific view of the world. So, we might be led to conclude that there really are no normative truths, or at least not objectively. As common as this conclusion is, it is incredibly radical: it denies that (it is true) that people who abuse their partners have (an objective) reason to stop abusing their partners. Must we accept this result? No. I argue that once we are clear about what the existence of objective, non-natural, irreducibly normative truths involves, we should see that there is nothing extravagant or mysterious about them. Consequently, we are free to take a relaxed stance towards their existence. I develop this sort of relaxed normative realism by pursuing an analogy between normative facts and facts in games (like that Kima is "It" in tag) while resisting the natural thought that this analogy leads to relativism.
