Let them die, deontological morality is the only morality.

The throwing a fat man in front of the trolley version is a better way of posing the same problem

>>9969043
Why would you jump onto the tracks?

>>9968745
>If you're so smart, solve the trolley problem.

hunt down and kill the motherfucker who keeps tying people to railroad tracks.

you're welcome.

>>9969053
WIN

>>9968745
>solve the trolley problem
Other people don't matter
Easy peesy

>>9969053
tho the questions should be
>Does it make a difference if you switch...and is it moral to do so?

>>9969053
No, it is important to not switch because a single death is a tragedy, while many is a statistic.

> 9/11 has p-value > 0.05

Chomsky told me to respect the trolley 's culture and that touching the lever would make me literally Kissinger

>>9968745

You do nothing, intervening would mean that you were directly involved in killing the one person, whereas leaving it be means you had no effect on the outcome.

isnt it selfish to not save 5 people over 1 just to save your own sense of guilt.

>>9968745
the original problem is just an exercise in utilitarianism, obviously save the five

>>9968745
Is it trolley time??

>>9971346
i love trolley time

>>9968745
How is this a problem?

While it's socially taboo to choose to eliminate the majory, economically and environmentally it's the best choice (assuming that is, there's a larger population of humans outside of this scenario).

>>9971364
Who doesn't?

>>9971364

>>9969053
None of these choices result in me winning a goat. So no.

>missed opportunity to say 9/11 was not significant

>>9971246
and isn't that sense of guilt accordingly misplaced?

>>9971692
Those who pose the question are guilty of providing the infinity wherein the observer must be assigned a moral dimension.

Brainlet.

>>9971692
huh?

>>9968745
its interesting because if you replaced humans with cats or somin. it would be way easier for people just to run over the 1 cat. desu ive never had this problem. ive always gone for the 5 and never seen why people think its so hard. only when i really imagine the person on that 1 track do i feel abit but in general my answer is within less than a second.

does this make me a psychopath or am i just not an idiot?

>>9971733
a lot of autists think that they're psychopaths at one point in their life because they confuse not understanding social cues with not empathizing with other people
