this is also a question

6. Read the story below. Then answer the question at the end. * A runaway trolley is heading at 5 innocent people, who happen to be walking along the abandoned tracks. You can save them, but not without collateral damage. The only way to save their lives is to push a large man off of a bridge, which spans the tracks. After he falls, the trolley will crash into him, slowing to a halt before it hits the five people in danger. You are 100% sure that this method will work, and you are 100% sure that this is the only way their lives can be saved. What do you think is the right thing to do in this situation?

there is no answer

you jump in front of the train yourself

you arnt fat enough to stop the trainKappa

also

"100% sure that this is the only way their lives can be saved. "

unless you just want to suicide due to the pressure

leave the idiots walking on train tracks alone then

the situation makes no sense because they can clearly just jump out of the way

"100% sure that this is the only way their lives can be saved. "

sorry leg they covered their bases

they are blind and deaf Kappa

i'm sorry the hypothetical person is extremely conceited

are you supposed to say a man fat enough to stop a trolley is pretty much dead anyway?

my response: The right thing to do would be to save the 5 people by pushing the large man off the bridge because saving the lives of 5 people while endangering 1 life is generally considered the better outcome as more lives will be saved when compared to loosing 5 lives while preserving 1.

just because this came up on game theory

I dont think there is a right answer to this, I think my teacher is just curious

say "scream at the idiots on the train tracks to get off"

that way you made an attemp to save lives without actively killing another person

but

you are 100% sure this will not work

so

meh

100% sure this is the only way to save ALL of their lives

no

and absolutes are impossible

well

in this hypothetical universe

it is physically impossible to save both the fat guy and the 5 people

it would be weight-ist to kil the fat man

yes but it would be weightist to not save the 5 not fat people Kappa

the act of making a decision based on weight is weightist

you should totally justify killing the fat man because he is clearly going to die of a heart attack soon anyway

no he is working on getting better

he has made great progress

and he has a wife and children

cool

throw them under the bus too

and holds a very important position

but so do all of the 5 others

there is no solution

jump in front of the train yourself

commit sudoku

exactly

screw the rules

debates like this are more fun if you make up more solutions

pretend to be the victum and claim you coudlent do anything because of ptsd

Keepo

too bad they put in "100% sure that this is the only way their lives can be saved. "

mc clearly has no immagination

wait for the train to go by then push the fat man

hope he dies from falling

Everyone loses!

then sudoku yourself
