    You quoted yourself, then attacked the strawman with all you had.

    You then expect me to defend your made up straw argument, failed.

    Since you seem to need it, I’ve explained it to you like a 5 year old.

      Yes, it’s totally a strawman. You definitely don’t think that we should not pull the lever and instead question why the trolley exists. That’s definitely not what your original comment said. Because those two are mutually exclusive anyway. We can only ever do one thing, like question the existence of the trolley or pull the lever to save more lives. It’s definitely not possible to vote to keep things from getting worse while also working the other 364 days to dismantle the trolley.

        How incredibly privileged and ignorant must one be to believe their lives are being kept from “from getting worse” under Harris?

          Yes of course. They will definitely get the same outcome whether Trump or Harris wins. Trump totally wouldn’t do things Harris wouldn’t to make the lives of immigrants and trans people worse. After all, they both support military camps for immigrants and bans on trans healthcare, right?

              Of course, because obviously the lives of American trans people are less important than your feeling of self-righteousness at not voting. Let’s let the trolley roll over trans people here and abroad! That’s definitely better than at least saving one of them with the little power we have!

                As someone who endorses genocide, trans people should look to Harris for salvation from danger! Remember to never question the sadistic people who create trolley problems!

                  Yes, remember to let the trolley roll over the most people because doing something to save lives is identical to endorsing the trolley’s action that could be prevented.

                  And again, everyone knows it’s impossible to do two things, we can only choose to complain about the trolley or make it harm fewer people, not both!

                    How dare anyone worry about a well oiled orphan crushing machine when we should all join hands and worry about one single orphan instead!
