So you choose to act, which resulted in a loss of a life. Instead of not acting which would have resulted to more deaths.

mmmmm yes the trolley problem is itself a trolley problem thereby validating its own philosophical usefulness i am very wise

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Without due process?!

Future trolley

[–] Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 months ago

I've been hearing of this individual's nefarious deeds my whole life, glad to see their reign of terror finally end!

Is it ethical to kill one person to save many? Or did you become the very thing you have sworn to destroy?

The future after we finally overthrow the ruling class:

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Spoiler. It was the entire institution that was responsible and it will slowly start deregulating any gains until all of their children and grandchildren are tied to the tracks

[–] rabidhamster@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago

Now duck before you get to that tunnel

[–] EyIchFragDochNur@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You clearly got the wrong person, why should they be on the trolley?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago

Because rich people put themselves above other people and who else than rich people would have the resources, callousness, and free time to go around tying people to tracks all over the world?
