trolley problem: you and Albert Camus are standing by the railway. nobody is in any danger. do you let Albert Camus jump in front of the moving trolley?
Apparently that is one of the worst parts of being a train driver. Seeing what’s about to happen, but knowing you can’t stop in time. Looking into someone’s eyes, just before they are reduced to a meat crayon.
That depends: are we in a country that lacks any kind of decent access to medical care, so that by not jumping we are causing a worse death than by jumping?
I mean, if it didn’t just kill me but erased me from existence so I wouldn’t cause a massive amount of trauma to the people around me, then yes absolutely!
