look at it this way: if you dont press the button 6 people die, and their blood would be on your hands because you didn't press the button

No, you would only be a bystander in a terrible tragedy.

letting people die is something different than killing someone to save many. it's a classical dilemma. but i guess being active as a murderer is not as bad as letting things happen. hard to say.

If you don't press the button there is no runaway train to stop

Not doing anything is not helping people. Stopping the train would be murder. Didn't do it.

I get that you intended this to be a trolley problem, but... the scenario doesn't happen if I choose not to press the button, so... yeah...

no pressing=6 deaths, pressing=1 death it's obvious, isn't it?

Alexisn.72 10 years ago
No, not pressing would kill 5 people. That 1 person only dies if you press the button

If you don’t press the button then there the runaway train doesn’t exist. Meaning no one dies.

I say yes because you can just clean it and I say that"s lucky.

If you don't press the button you wouldn't be held accountable, but 5 people would die.. can't you just yell at the one person to get off the track?

happylego91 10 years ago
I'd rather kill the 5 people on the tracks because at that point it's just natural selection if you're taking a nap on train tracks.

I would tell the train guy in advance to be careful because of a button.

So it doesn't say that all this happens at the same time. So I could have saved five people one day, and five years later killed someone... this doesn't help.

Maybe the random person is a bad person... and if they live away from where the train is then..

Why did their blood have to land on button presser"s hands and not the perfectly good ground?
