This is probably even true in the philosophy sense. Basically instead of a single lever, each of us gets a lever which might change something or might not, or it might do something unrelated. This means that everyone’s responsibility for that decision is dithered. This sort of rewrites the trolley problem. How does it change the philosophy? No idea.
This meme is incredible. I really love trolley problem memes, collectively they’re great.
I would be remiss to not link to this trolley problem game https://neal.fun/absurd-trolley-problems/
Thank you, I have wasted a few hours killing either 42(my lowest) or 85(my highest). Give or take 5 people in the future.
Daniel Tiger the children’s show has a trolley that is on wheels with no track. Does this still count as a trolley or is this a glorified bus?
So nobody has to die?
Would you like the statistics for pedestrian deaths? Or traffic deaths in general?
Trolley deaths are probably way less common!
And that’s why we must put people on the tracks and do ethics conundrums
Yep, basically
Since reaching their lowest point in 2009, pedestrian deaths have increased 80% and account for 17% of all traffic deaths.
