You know, if you just kill everyone, there will be nobody left to accuse you of supporting atrocities.

Humanity is going to humanity.

What you propose is the only solution.

The final one, even.

Death solves all problems...

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

Upvote for death

[–] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Judge death does.

The crime is life the sentence is death.

Dark Urge up in this bitch.

Actually the trail is a self sustaining dynamic system habitable by humans that is so long, that one round is exactly 20 years of travel time long. Enough time to birth a new generation on the tracks so that the killing won't stop.

After birthing the infants are placed directly after the train which runs through their mother so that the cycle of endless suffering may never stop.

To enforce this really, decay of a nuclear and of a sub nuclear level don't exist, just as quantum fluctuations don't so that there truly is no escape.

I literally thought of this yesterday.

"Hold up. Why have I been put in this situation? Where's those responsible? Has anyone gone after the bridge guy, the brakes guy? Is anyone trying to get the sick fucks tying people down on tracks? What's being put in place to prevent this? Fences?Cameras? E-brakes? Who has liability and are they getting investigated?"

"Just Shutup and choose."

"I guess B is most logical."

"Oooh, you're a sick murderer and just want people dead!"

It's hard to participate when most people only have an A/B, us/them, left/right, right/wrong mentality view on things when it's obviously more complex when viewed from a few steps back. It's being stuck in either yard or on the fence, but if you climb a tree you'll realise there's many more yards and fences to the street to consider.

Enough with that! You can't question the trolley situation, it's been like this for generations. Get on board. We have flags!

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago

Your last paragraph is so good - thanks

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I rather think you're missing the point.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Well, that doesn't mean I can't share something I thought of the other day before seeing this reminder :)

Your first problem is giving a shit what anyone else thinks.

[–] Darken@reddthat.com 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

According to this I can go naked in the streets

[–] Acters@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Second problem: too many people give a shot about what you do or look like

In principle, in a free country, you should be able to. But you can't, so it's not actually free.

[–] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

How far does that freedom to do what you please extend? Am I not actually free because I can't beat up people I disagree with? Personally I feel the freedom to disagree without the threat of violence is more important.

There is freedom to, and there is freedom from. Don't undervalue freedom from.

I don't give a shit about your opinion!

[–] callouscomic@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Good for you. I'm happy for you. That's a good way to live.

Oh no! I knew this would be controversial.

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The best part is you can edit the title and none would be the wiser

I'm still getting used to being able to edit post titles after years of being unable to

[–] KISSmyOS@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Did you find all the different directors cuts of Naughty Furry Adventures you were looking for?

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

I wish Lemmy kept records of all edits.

[–] Limitless_screaming@kbin.social 19 points 2 years ago

Do you even know what the rest of the people on the tracks will do if you stop the trolley? You will be responsible for what happens to the trolley operators and passengers.

[–] Darken@reddthat.com 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

There's no dilemma. If the goal is to express disapproval to people, then do what people think is disapproval... Which is doing nothing covered by some acting to appear as trying to do something

Yeah! In the form of acting like we care while doing nothing, like mentioned in the prior comment.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The lever has two settings .... FAST .... or .... FASTER
