  • Deontologist ethics are a bunch of nonsense that I have little respect for, somehow even less so than for Utilitarians.

    Not flipping the switch, aka not voting for the lesser evil, shows you consider the cleanliness of your own conscience more important than any actual real consequences in the world. It is a disgustingly self-centered stance to take : you had a chance to make the world less of a bad place, you didn’t. You made the wrong choice.

    Also, if you’re going to stoop to ad hominem, you should at least check your spelling. It’s “Vogue” not “Vouge”, and “Trolley” not “Trolly”.

    The loop track is longer, and also more likely to damage the trolley and prevent it from going over them.

    Even on strictly ethical grounds, you should switch tracks, there is a non-zero chance it will save them !
