Do you pull the lever, killing 1 + 1+1+ 1... people - one person for every integer - resulting in infinite people dying? Or do you do nothing, allowing the trolley to kill one person for every real number? In both cases, infinite people die; but in the top case, the smallest possible infinity of people die (No). whereas in the bottom case, a larger infinity of people die (some infinities are bigger than other infinities). What do you do?

If you pull the lever, Harambe will die. If you don't, his existence will never be appreciated. What do we value higher? Harambe or the idea of Harambe? 00000 Jereal.real005

Someone's philosophy professor is Satan

Someone's Philosophy Professor is also a Dungeon Master. 2 traceexcalibur INTRODUCING: THE PRISONER'S TROLLEY PROBLEMMA A trolley full of your loved ones is heading down the tracks and will hit another loved one. If you redirect it, it will hit three strangers, but all of your loved ones will be fine. However, there is another person on the other side of the tracks facing the same problem. If you both choose to redirect the trolleys, they will crash in the middle, killing almost everyone. The least amount of people will die if you do nothing and allow a loved one to die, the best-case scenario for you will occur if you pull your lever and the other person does not pull theirs, and the worst-case scenario will occur if you both pull your levers. What do you do??? argumate good lord

You solved the trolley problem

Pin

Why would you shoot a man after tying him to the train tracks?

The bigger question is: why are they on the track lane in the first place?

In Thought Experiment Land... Oh no, not again! I have to throw this switch to minimize the number of deaths caused by that trolley. What a horrible dilemma! I can just stop until you clear the tracks Of course thatť's what I want! if you want. It's just that you guys keep putting people on the track so I thought you were into it. Just so we're clear, that's always been an option. 99 madeofmistake.com
