EDIT Ok so it’s just the trolly problem.

EDIT2 : AHA War Games 1983. “The only winning move is not to play.” (We might call this the final product of a lot of smart philosophical digestion, because it’s a famous movie). There’s always the perfectly valid option to ditch the riddle. (Because maybe the riddle is dumb, or maybe the riddle is no better than a thousand others, utilitywise )

    At one hand I’d say : you really need (mental)help

    At the other hand … Global warming is doing just that.

    So if it’s guaranteed global warming is reversed and not starts over, one could reason it’s justified (biggest question, which/who’s children is it ghonna be)

      I was recently traumatized by an incident of gratuitous moral simplemindedness. Maybe you can gimme some complex fresh air. Or maybe you can’t

      It was the ending of King’s"The Institute". He autocastarates bigtime. But I guess you gotta ask, who is he writing for?
