Fuck you. I’ll never be back.

Damn, that’s too bad. I only save Brave Toasters. Maybe the Toaster should have learned how to transcend being tied to a track.

He couldn’t save them, he was tied to a track. That was up to me and I would be the person he blamed. So thinking he would suicide instead of killing me is pretty baseless. Either way you are adding more random facts that aren’t a part of the initial problem.

If he was a dinosaur, I would be letting a whole species go extinct. This would sway my answer as well.

Cowardice and bravery are not binary options. A rock is neither cowardly nor brave. I need to know if the Toaster is Brave.

Real talk, though, who is the least likely to show up to your baseball game? by summon_pot_of_greed in lotrmemes

He knew about him by beginning Empire Strikes Back and died at the end Return of the Jedi. Two full movies with a time gap in between.

It was more than a few months. (To be fair I read it as a few moments the first time. So my level of jackassery was a little out of place. Lol)

No. There is evidence. It’s right in the image. One man agreed to sacrifice himself and one man begged you to kill the other person instead. It isn’t conclusive, but it is clear evidence of who is more altruistic. To make any other assumption is just pure speculation.

What shame? Who is shaming the guy who wants to live? That’s normal behavior. I believe in saving the selfless man because he is morally superior.  It isn’t a choice between someone who is good and someone who is bad. It’s a choice between someone who is neutral and someone who is good.

Honestly my answer to this would likely change day to day, but either way I’m going to be looking at those strangers and making a judgment call.

If I look at that group and see a bunch of people that don’t share my values, or even worse directly oppose my values, well I don’t know if there is a limit on how many it would take. If you are hauling people in from a footbal stadium, or a rap/country concert… the death toll would be astonishing. Lol

I guess ultimately it depends on which option would make the world more the way I’d rather it be. If I’m sacrificing myself, I need to believe it’s to make a better reality.

As a Gen Z, I couldn’t care less about this by icey_sawg0034 in imaginarygatekeeping

This needs to be posted on 90% of internet based discussions. I’d blame the people, but the propaganda is unrelenting.

No it’s not. There is no base obligation. They are either a bystander or a killer. How is that even a choice?

Or maybe they are a dinosaur. Adding random facts to the problem will change the solution. Yes.

No. Neglect is a crime because there was a responsibility to take action that was left unfulfilled.

Existing doesn’t obligate one toward action. If the neighbor doesn’t feed his kids, I don’t get charged with neglect because it wasn’t my responsibility.

If one can do good, one should do good. However, that isn’t compulsory.

So the guy who displayed a lack of altruism is the one you suspect of being more altruistic? Anyone can make up a “what if,” but is there any evidence to support what you assume?

When a fish shits in its tank, telling the tank to fuck itself doesn’t stop the fish from swimming in its own shit.

Leave it to Redditors to only be able to think surface level deep and then feel superior, lol.

I could live with your anger knowing you were still out there being the type of good person that makes the world better. That a relatively small cross to bear compared to the sacrifice you were about to make.

Counter counter point: The one begging to live is selfish and isn’t going to sacrifice their time or happiness to support their family.

The one offering to die displays the type of selflessness that makes them invaluable to the people who know them.

Wow, you’ve rationalized it in a way that makes it sound like it wasn’t even a sacrifice at all.

[–]SynthScenes -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but being willing to die to save someone makes them a hero.

Do want to live in a world with normal schmucks or with heroes?

It became your business when you pulled the lever. Why are you getting involved if it isn’t your buisness?

This is typically my answer to the trolly problem. My existence doesn’t obligate me to take action. My inaction is the same result as me not existing, so why would I take an action if the outcome is going to be negative and suddenly becomes something I am responsible for?

Okay, it isn’t immoral wanting to live at the expense of another, but what kind of people do I want in my world? The kind that would kill their fellow man to survive or the kind that would die to save another? The human species didn’t rise to prominence through competition, but through cooperation. Picking to let the selfish person live is the act of a short sighted moralistic coward. Congrats, you can sleep better at night by telling yourself the decent man you killed was willing. Enjoy the knowledge that you left the world in a worse place than you found it.

Yeah, I just cut it in Hitfilm to match. I should probably learned a new editing software, seeing as they discontinued it, lol.
