I know it’s buried in one of his videos, but haven’t found it. The gist is that trolley problems are perfectly spherical frictionless cows in a vacuum. They are metaphysical, platonic ideals of dilemmas that never actually occur in the real world. They’re divorced from the uncountably large number of specifics of any real-life situation.

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer
