    This is like choosing to do nothing in the trolley problem because you disagree with the notion of taking part in something that will kill people.

    Nah, it’s rejecting the entire scenario as being made up. Why not fucking stop the trolley?!?!? Its our foot on the throttle making it run people over!!

      You “rejected the scenario” but didn’t actually stop the trolley, and now it’s crushing people. Brilliant fucking job there with your out of the box thinking!

        So, why don’t you help me stop the trolley from killing anyone, instead of blaming me that you keep mashing down the throttle?

          Wow you really don’t understand the trolley problem I guess. Neither of us is in control of the throttle.

            Then let’s kill the ones with their feet in it, instead of wasting time deciding which lives are more important!!!

            Jesus, the trolley only keeps rolling because we agree to let it keep going…
