    If you’re obsessed with putting everything in this framework then derailing all trolleys will always have a lower deathtoll than the system of tying people to rails to create trolley problems.

    but they stop using trolley problems to teach anything after philosophy 101 because it’s a single tool that’s for examining one single thing that turns out to actually be the process of decision making and not morality or values or anything people want to use it for. it’s a meme, it has a million variations because that’s how jokes work. you weren’t supposed to apply it to the real world

    RAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
