Damn sight better than if I’d not voted at all. I’ve already explained to you that the only options were less death and more death, and unlike you, I think more death is worse
For the record, I don’t find any death acceptable. That’s why I tried to mitigate it as much as possible. You apparently do find more death acceptable, or else you would have voted
You saw the trolley careening towards the 5 people, and instead of pulling the lever to make it hit the 1, you said “I don’t think anyone should be run over by trolleys.” Like yeah, I agree, but that trolley is still gonna run a bunch of people over, so maybe pull the lever anyway
Liberals and their dumbass trolley problem. What liberals don’t acknowledge is their own party along with Republicans and capitalism have placed those marginalized people on those tracks. They’re those of us that are simply trying to derail the trolley itself and we keep getting punched at by democrats insisting that those marginalized have to stay on the tracks and that the trolley has to keep moving forward. You can’t have both. You could either have human rights and people live or you can have capitalism, Democrats want to defend both
First off, not my party. I don’t know how many more ways there are to say the phrase “voting for someone is not a show of support for them and all of their views.”
You don’t like the trolley problem because it’s a very good analogy for the present situation. There were exactly two options, and if you chose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
I also want to “derail the trolley.” I want a third party to win. But on the first Tuesday of November, it’s too late to build any new tracks. It’s too late to make a third party viable. If you know that third party isn’t going to win, then continuing to try to build that third track even as the trolley careens past the fork is tacit approval of whatever track it went down. Reach over and pull the damn lever, then get back to building the track.
The analogy kind of breaks down when you consider that Donald Trump plans on making it literally impossible for Democrats to win, let alone third parties. Again, unless you plan on doing something incredibly based very soon, you can kiss your third track goodbye. Trump owns the White House, Congress, and the Supreme Court. You think he’s gonna let Stein take the W in 2028?
And I bet you thought you did good by voting for a Democrat that is committing genocide while denying that it’s actually occurring
Damn sight better than if I’d not voted at all. I’ve already explained to you that the only options were less death and more death, and unlike you, I think more death is worse
And I’m sure the families of the dead that you determine are acceptable find great peace in your decision
