Union workers solved the trolley problem, you're welcome

IWW IU 520 (Railroad Workers) PRESENTS:

TROLLEY PROBLEM SOLUTION

"Slip the switch" by flipping it while the trolley's front wheels have passed through, but before the back wheels do. This will cause a controlled derailment bringing the trolley to a safe halt.

Turning off replies and giving quotes a good hard look as well. Not sure some of y'all can be trusted with the Internet.

Listen to Calvin's Dad, folks.

Replying to this post? I'll show you something interesting.
The two types of replies are humorless scolding and Kobayashi Maru. “It’s an ethical dilemma”? Humorless scolding. James T. Kirk? Kobayashi Maru.
Multi-track drifting? Kobayashi Maru. “What about the people in the trolley”? Humorless scolding. Even though they aren’t jokes, the posts thanking union members are actually Kobayashi Maru.

If a trolley would eliminate 1 quote post, but if you hit a switch, it’d take out 5 replies…
