    That theory works great in hindsight, but before the election the orange turd was promising to stop wars, not start them.

    Sure we all know he’s a liar now, but before the election, going on their campaigns, how could anyone be sure which track would actually have more bodies in the future in that Trolley Problem.

    You can’t predict the future, so that’s like presenting the Trolley Problem as if the switch is 10 miles before the tracks split.

      Bruh. Everyone with an ounce of awareness knew he was a liar. Since the fucking 80s this was well known. Known then, known now.

      This future was so predictable that it was outilned in back to the mf future.

      Believing the campaign of Biff is not an out.

      This isn’t some unknowable conundrum. And it’s not the trolley problem when you know damn well that who’s manning the switch will drift both tracks.
