if anything, pulling the lever slows the tram a bit and pushing again accelerates it again
We should derail the trolley if it can only go forward at varying speeds.
Maybe living on a planet where people are constantly tied to trolley tracks was a mistake.
Well they weren't always tied to the tracks, that's a newish development.
Then who tied them there?
I blame agriculture.
I see someones been reading their copy of Industrial Society and it's Future.
The more I learn history the more I believe we were doomed from the start.
Ishmael?
David Graeber's "Debt: the First 5000 Years" and "Dawn of Everything" pretty much covers this in its entirety.
Yes they’re two of my favorites
Was it you boomer? It was you don't lie
I only tie people up with their consent.
what are the odds i find the one other person in the state with a snively whiplash kink, and it's the other tie-er
When weren't they tied to the tracks? And who is the "they"?
so you're choosing to hurt one person (conductor) to save many (people tied to the rails)
That conductor knows what he did.
Yes, the conductor (ruling class) is the one in charge of the trolley. They’re free to stop the trolley and hop off if they want to live.
Deontology Is for self-serving pricks.
Don’t you know, it’s completely hopeless and your vote for damage reduction is just evil. So you should sit in the dark and just be miserable. /s
Why do you think you're changing their suggestion to sitting in the dark?
What if we dont see the people on the tracks? Do they really die if we dont see them? If not then I vote red for a faster ride!
