    But I am paying the cost. I accept that my family might be killed in an accident, with the same probability as anyone else.

    If that’s your point, that a stupid point, and you should do better.

      Again if you are not willing to engage in a discussion where there is more nuance than black vs one, move along

        Blacknor white, as in “kill your family without consideration of probability (aka grey zones)”?

          I’m tired of explaining what a thought experiment is and the point I was trying to discuss… You can just disagree and move on with our lives

          Have a great week ahead bud

            Are you 14 and just learned what it is yourself? Everybody knows what a thought experiment is, and what the trolley one is in particular, which you just made a stupid version of.

            Would you rather solve word hunger or get kicked in the crotch?
