    Doesn’t matter. All YOU can do is pull the lever, or not. You can’t change who’s on the track. You can’t remove the trolley. You can’t untie the people or lift up the tracks. In this sense, the trolley problem is almost a 1-for-1 representation of voting (in a swing state, at least). You can pull the lever, or not. Those are your options.

      To people who get what they want no matter the state of the lever.

      I voted for Harris. I’m not going to proclaim that your genocide is the moral genocide just because you demand that I do.
