I do nothing. I went through QM classes in my Chemistry times and I still don't get it. If I do nothing at least nobody can blame me for fucking everything up.
-
I mean, the blame clearly lies on whoever created the fucking situation in the first place. I hate the trolley problem.
-
I feel like blame is the very obvious factor missing from most descriptions of trolley problems I've seen.
"Will it send me to jail?" is a highly important question for something that might easily be considered murder even if it does prevent other deaths.
-
the blame aspect is the original purpose of the trolley problem, it's about whether the trolley puller can accept the moral blame of killing the one person (and saving 5 others) in the original postulation // is the trolley puller blameless for non-intervention even when intervention is trivial
-
In reality though it would become a legal question, not (just) a moral one.
