Edit of yesterday's meme with accounted for non-voters
it is a good thing there is no option for political violence on this helpful chart about the distribution of political violence
you wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong ideas about the direction political violence has to flow
This shit is getting annoying because it's such a fundamental misunderstanding of what the trolley problem tries to tell you. You cannot use the trolley problem to prove that utilitarianism is better. The entire point is to show the difference between deontology and utilitarianism. It's just tiring to watch.
True, it's a misapplication of the original thought experiment.
But it also kind of lays bare the consequences of choosing "the moral high ground" over an outcomes-based approach to morality. And I think that is still a useful thing.
I saw this exact one with someone on the bottom that said "I refuse to participate in a broken system" on r/PeterExplainsTheJoke and NOBODY understood it.
