Comment on Suffering

  Why tho? Your choice is to condemn a few, versus kill more people than have died throughout all of history of humankind. 100 is a drop in a bucket compared to eternal genocide.

    You don’t suffer after you’re dead. Being reincarnated and killed infinite times is infinitely worse than being killed once. If each trolley kills at the same rate, the actual amount of created suffering should be comparable, but I’d argue that since the infinite people don’t revive, we can assume that the trolley is replacing their normal deaths. This means that the suffering they would experience from dying normally never happens and the infinite people option actually creates less suffering overall.

    It’s a communist thing. Fair distribution of wealth and suffering.

      It’s a capitalist assumption to think people with less karma goes first.
