    You don’t seem to understand WHY the Trolley problem is so difficult. It’s not a simple matter of “one side is quantitatively better” so you pick it. It means you are actively making the choice to harm people even if you think it’s better in the long run. If you don’t see why people found this choice difficult (and it’s universally agreed upon that one choice is better than the other) then you’re blind to the problem and haven’t actually spoken to voters. Talking down to people that they only can make one choice and that they’re stupid for not making it is not helpful and sets you up for failure next time too.

      I frankly don’t care anymore. I’m done with trying to talk sense to the senseless. If they want to let the five die and justify it to themselves as some “heroic choice” then fuck 'em.

        We feel the same way about you. I went to funerals and know grieving families but that’s less important to people like you, willing to sell out your principles with zero red lines. Blue MAGA is not altogether that different than Trump voters in this regard.

            And you sold your principles to a politician.

                And did I vote for him or endorse him or donate to him or support him? No.

                At this point if you really are missing the point that badly I can’t help you. You threw away your principles in an attempt to give democrats a win and have nothing to show for it. Peace.
