He died and that's your fault - Trolley Problems

from Ladies & Tangents · host Ladies & Tangents | Para Pods

A classic Trolley Problem is a pillar of psychological and sociological studies. If you're unfamiliar, the OG Trolley P is “The trolley problem is a classic ethical thought experiment: a runaway trolley threatens five people; you can pull a lever to divert it to a track killing only one person, but you directly cause that death. It highlights the conflict between utilitarianism (maximizing lives saved) and deontological ethics (not actively killing).” We took it to another level and let our Patreon submit variations for us to blind react to. If we weren't sure before that our audience is full of creatively twisted individuals, we are now.  THANKS SPONSORS - NOCD - If you're struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.
