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

        The crime is life the sentence is death.

    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.

      Very appropriate metaphors — Hamas tying people to the tracks is really surprisingly on the nose.

        It’s seems to me that Hamas is to Israel as the Taliban were to the United States (and co-conspirators)

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

          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.

          You’ve confused freedom with anarchy. By your logic you should be able to murder anyone you please or else it’s not a free country.

    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

    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.
