Meta-Ethical Quietism
Quietism is an approach that says, okay, this particular philosophical issue, once we get super clear on what we mean, what we thought was a problem is no longer a problem. A classic case where I take this position is on the issue of free will. One could just recognize that the issue came down to certain sorts of misuses of language and confusions about the relevant concepts. Once those are sort of cleared away, once you clear away the brush, there's nothing there anymore.
