Wow… so you’re telling me you took an action that resulted in the death of one person… to save the lives of many people… who would have died if you did nothing??? that sounds so familiar
Even used the lever to do so.
Oooh. I thought it was a plunger and my guy’s just got a hell of a swing.
“I’m gonna take you out in two plunges. First, I plunge you, then you plunge to the ground”
A fitting punishment.
Oh no, you’re getting it wrong.
I only found the person responsible for giving me the feeling of helplessness and made them helpless.The other people’s lives?
Well, I just pulled of the lever, so now nobody has the opportunity to make that choice, hence no dilemma. And who got run over in the end, I didn’t check. I didn’t know whether or not the direction got changed when I was breaking off the lever. Also, I didn’t really stop the train either, so I only stopped the dilemma from happening. I didn’t save any ppl.
You fool.
Now you expanded the problem; is it moral to kill a person responsible for murder, to make a choice to end someone’s life?
Yes.
Everyone loves positing moral dilemmas and then leaving them for other people to answer, with a finger poised to their lips ready to say “Interesting” and point out some weak level of hypocrisy.
I’m just gonna answer simply, and correctly: Yes. If someone is a repeated threat to the safety of others and there is any reasonable risk of the justice system failing to incarcerate them, it is better to end their life.
I wouldn’t even make that claim against one-time murderers, but some people go far over the line.
In this case, it is simply a joke
I never took my question seriously, and I would certainly pick the same. In the original dilemma, I would pull the lever.
LOOK OUT FOR THE TUNNEL AAAHHHH
My first thought exactly
Is that a plunger?
its the lever
Thats my exact comment from when I saw things on reddit a while back 😅 I also thought it looked exactly like a plunger
Death by toilet plunger. What a way to go!
I stood on the edge of it all, a lone figure against the storm, contemplating the grim series of events that had led me here. The trolley problem, they called it. An ethical dilemma turned deadly reality. I had solved it the only way I knew how - with a bullet. The man responsible for tying all those people to the tracks was finally dead. It was over.
You saw them fall into the ravine, but did you see the body? HAS ANYONE SEEN THE BODY?
With a lirpa, apparently:
That thing is made of plastic and hollow, they couldn’t hold it like that otherwise.
That’s always been my answer, I don’t touch anything unless it’s to switch it to the person who put me in the position to “have to decide” because fuck that guy.
Now you gotta tie him to the track and do a kickflip and ollie with the train
So what? God? But I’m an atheist sooo…. The first cell?
