D)z Nuts

E) **** em? This is a self induced destruction caused by the ignorance of American culture and would honestly be sweet deserved justice if our stupidity caused a huge chunk of our population to die.

A Ok
B That’s your answer I think
C “Might” doesn’t make it not a trolley problem just a more complicated one.
D Good one
E 80% true I’d say

Why do you always jump to the most violent and extreme reaction for everything?
It’s just the way I think. Fines and jail don’t eliminate the aggressive vector.

Still not a trolley problem.

And trolley problems arent meant to be solved.

Okay, here's a bigger stretch of the trolley problem.

You openly pledging allegiance to Trump and spreading propaganda to overly credit him for something good is what's going to be factor that would lead to Trump era fascism, a potential civil war and more policies that put low income workers' lives at risk. Should we shoot anybody for doing so, including you, to save us from the potential deaths of Trump era fascism?


Edit: My friend's little brother called me a square because I didn't want to go pick up midget hookers during a pandemic. Okay, OH. Let's shoot em. Shoot em all.

Speed limits are the result of thinking over a trolley problem. Coming to a compromise between the risk of death and injury, fuel consumption, and the efficiency of expeditious travel.

It always struck me as peculiar that people get outraged about drunk driving but are totally cool with sober driving.

Duh. Midget hookers. You got to experience life a little. A tiny bit of appreciation for the small things. Life is too short.

Do you notice how they arrived at a reasonable middle ground? I mean it doesn't sound so reasonable now but who knew about global warming back then ffs.

Unpopular opinion: midget porn is for pedophiles in denial.

Whether or not people with my political proclivities should be killed is another trolley problem. Many if not most past and some current cultures would choose for me to be killed. They might be justified. You might be right if you feel that way. I couldn’t honestly say with complete certainty that you would be wrong.
