Just put explosives collars on a bunch of murderers and rapists. Need superpowers just press a button and kill one murderer off.
"collateral damage"
I just played this as a board game with my friends. They decided that pineapple on pizza is worse than Donald Trump. My hope in humanity is shattered.
That is crazy. I can't think of any part of Donald Trump that I would want on my pizza.
Touché
Aren't we always chanting "eat the rich"? I'd be fine with the food poisoning, hell even the brain eating prions, if it means he won't be president.
Also a spin-off where Trolley Man cures incurable patients one by one using sacrifices of 5
The artist just immortalized in a strip that does not understand the trolley problem.
Entire thing is analysis paralysis. There always some information that will change desired outcome.
Don’t bother trying to explain philosophy directly to people online. We’re so convinced of our own intelligence that we refuse to consider that our knee-jerk reaction to anything might be worth exploring.
If you want people to learn anything, you have to first of all tell them that they’re right, then add whatever you’re trying to teach them as if it’s some nuance of whatever they’re right about. Even if it makes their original opinion completely wrong. It works surprisingly often.
Our egos have an outer layer of armor that prevents us from easily absorbing ideas unless they have a starting point of agreeing with whatever we already believe.
Can Trolley Man at least multi-track drift?
I keep seeing this image, were ist from?
Initial D parody.
While you are at that... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=j0QSrhGw4cU
The best part is that, by refusing to be killed themselves, they are making a choice to let the other people die, rendering their hypocrisy evident and their worry fully rendered moot
I mean, the boat appears to be pretty close to the coast, and not very big. I'd just call the coast guard and there are good chances that nobody dies.
To be honest they could actually swim to shore, it's not impossible
Yeah, but what if it was a ship full of assholes? I got shopping to do.
I would read the shit out of this but 5 people I have never and will never meet who nobody knows will die painlessly and I’m just not sure of the moral implications.
Issue #1 or 5? You decide!
This got a bonus chuckle from me.
Still saves more lives than Homelander
Isn't Homelander a villain though? I thought he was supposed to be a villain.
Edit: NM I didn't realize Homelander was from The Boys. I honestly thought he was the guy in Guardians of The Galaxy 3
Edit 2: Apparently that character's name is Adam Warlock.
The multiple layers of confusion gave me a laugh, thank you.
Ugh, this guy's gonna be a problem.
Like a whole thing 😫
It's close to the second ghost rider (and maybe the first, been awhile since I dug up my old comics) who didn't have powers until innocent blood was spilled (though typically it was the villain who spilled it).
The Dave Chappelle bit about Bill Cosby being a superhero.... but he rapes.
I want more of this. Reminds me on the anime Darker than Black, where those with power always had to fulfill some contract to use their power, else they'd die.
Man, this anime is so underrated. I like it a lot. I question the artistic direction on the second season, but at least the ending wrapped up the whole show nicely.
A little correction, nobody really know what happens when a contractor doesn't do that side-effect thingy. It is never mentioned if they would die, nor that it's even implied. The way I see it, they'd simply develop strong impulse to do so.
There is no sinking ship. Fake news!
So he killed Stan Lee?
And here was I thinking that this character was so terrible that it caused Stan Lee to spontaneously spring back into existence in order to make that opinion known.
How democrats unironically viewed the election.
that's rich.
the only idiots who willingly misattribute this thought experiment are conservative trolls and Leftists, in my experience.
honestly I think Democrats are the only ones who can fully grasp the concept of the trolley problem since both conservatives and leftists are much too extreme to make a non-biased choice. That can only be true because Democrats ride the fence between the two so well(according to both conservatives anf leftists).
but hey, I'm just some retard on the internet according to them as well. 🤷
