lol- well your taxes still fund everything the US does. Your foot is still on the accelerator but you think the right answer to the trolley problem is 'let Jesus take the wheel'.
But yeah, sounds like you in particular probably shouldn't vote and let more rational people decide what death and destruction your taxes go towards ;)
inaction is a valid and rational choice in the trolley problem
Yeah, people that care more about meaningless moral absolution than actual human lives can rationalize anything.
I'm not willing to kill people. I care about human lives.
Your taxes kill people.
yep.
Yep, and you just let it happen without even trying to mitigate- sad moral failure.
wrong

Cool- thanks again for letting me decide what your taxes pay for.
"I'll still be a citizen a but I won't do the tiniest thing possible in the democracy that may move the needle a little bit because I want to feel righteous"
Goddamn, these single-issue voters suck.
