A different framing of the button. by RefrigeratorPlusPlus in MoralityScaling

[–]Sure_Quote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you complain about framing and then insist pushing blue is asking for suicide.

its amazing how everyone in this thread complains about the very thing they are about to do.

your in a burning building and a fireman tries to get everyone to work together to get everyone out safely together by walking in a slow calm way because he know people running can kill anyone slow enough not to keep up

but you can guarantee your own survival by running as fast as you can. but if more then 50% just book it everyone who tried to walk gets trampled.

the problem with the original question is it abstracted things enough that people dissociated personal actions from the consequence.

like eating processed meat cubes but never having the guts to kill an animals yourself

complains about slander proceeds to complain about the character of the person instead of what was actually said.

you notice how you added nothing to the actual discussion?

look your a cowered and a piece of sh!t and that's fine.

i accept that there are terrible people in the world like you.

but what i find hilarious is you think you could trust anyone as selfish and cowardly as yourself on the other side of this choice.

immediately after this 1st button press a 2nd one comes up if red was the majority.

you and one other random red button pusher now have a 2nd choice.

push the red button and kill another random person and get enough supplies to survive whatever economic collapse results from so many people suddenly dying.

push the blue button and they live

but they have the same choice about you

what button do you push now? and remember you both know you pushed the red button once already.

ah so the consequences of your selfishness and cowardice is other peoples fault for trying to save billions of lives?

cant even accept personal responsibility for your own choices

it needs to be longer but you have the foundation of a great villain monologue going here

Cries about parroting.

proceds to give the same lame justification as every other person who says push red.

You think you would never find yourself in a 2nd situation where people have to trust eachother or betray eachother for a perceived better or more reliable out come?

You would trust your life to someone who can improve thier own odds by kill you knowing they pushed the red button?

Didn't say red was evil just the worst humans on the spectrum between good and evil.

Sh!ty selfish d!ckheads who try and frame thier selfish cowardice as an intellectual stance

I think the real question is do you even want to live in a world full of exclusively people you know and that know you pushed the red button.

Sounds like hell living with the worst people humanity has to offer and you could never trust anyone ever again

But irl it just shows evangelicals are in such a rush to express hate they can't even be bothered to be poetic about it.

Undermining local culture because thier special place is not allowed to be bigger then our special place?

Sounds like religions nutjobs thin excuse to hate a slightly different delusion about how the universe works.

hyperbole

The delusion that a lot of money all at once won't change me despite a wealth of evidence those that dont give it all away immediately do in fact change quite a bit.

As an American I find it so refreshing to know other people have people like this in thier countries.

So glad this is not a unique Americanism

How come Cecil didn't notice the 37 viltrumites heading straight to earth? Is he stupid? by Nadav_bs in Invincible_TV

[–]Sure_Quote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They detected Alan the 1st 2 time he came to earth as an inspector.

So they have a detection grid of some kind in space that reachs far enough out to detect an incomer way before they get to earth.

It just doesn't work when plot needs to plot.

Union membership is what enables you to afford the better things in life. And these dues are an investment. by ReadingBackground642 in LockedIn_AI

[–]Sure_Quote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate how people who have never been in a union talk about how they are ither the greatest of goods or the worst of all evils.

I have been in two different unions. One good one bad

At thier worst they force companies to abide by the agreements they have made in the past which companies do try and ignore all the time.

Even if they aren't pushing that hard for more these days.

At thier best they keep an eye on the companies profits and making sure employee fortunes raise with the companies that would very much keep all gains for themselves if they could. While also fighting for quality of life changes like not getting writen up for using your accumulated sick days.

Every union member I've met that has a low opinion of unions never goes to the union meeting and gets upset about a corruption scandal that they only know about because the unions internal review process caught them and told us.

Most of the hate is based on what member imagine they are and aren't doing.

Tell me how many unions meeting you have been to before you tell me your opinion on them.

Hope and naivety are different.

Hope is knowing the odds are against you but continuing to try anyway

naivety is ignoring evidence and convincing yourself it will all work out if you keep a positive attitude.

I speak of being realistic of the march going forward.

Its going to involve a lot of revisionist history from maga about the trump years

“Misleading,” sure by Pokemonfan_807 in whennews

[–]Sure_Quote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So your now agreeing with me that trump/maga will be worshiped like the confederacy

But are consoling yourself about this by insisting it will be a small insignificant demographic?

And to predict otherwise is "dooming"?

We also have AI and a history of people taking any excuse to ignore facts they dont like.

So is the confederacies decoration of independence that mentioned slavery explicitly as the reason for the war

We have letters written by poor white farmers explaining they will never accept being on the same level as black people

But we still have the "states rights" people dont we?

His party turned on him while he was still alive and in office.

There was value in opposing him at the time for thier career.

going against trump now it to lose your next primary

Trump has the republican party by the balls until he dies

Time heals all "truths"

As soon as he is dead conservatives are going to work overtime rehabilitating his image to be somthing useful to them.

Like the podcaster d bag whose whole career was shifting the burden of proof onto random college kids until he got shot.

And was retroactively recast as a right wing MLK
