  • I don’t think anyone in this thread is saying that you aren’t making the choice to not let someone die.

    People are just expecting you to be able to handle being asked, “Why did you let 10 people die when there was an option for you to only let 1 person die instead?”

    The trolley being on the warpath isn’t your fault; but you did have the option to reduce the number of deaths by taking action. Through your choice, an objectively larger number of people suffered, died, or lost a loved one. And for some actual reason you didn’t pull the lever other than “I’m not a murderer.”

    We understand you aren’t a murderer. You aren’t intending to hurt anyone. But through your action, you can reduce the number of people murdered. Don’t be surprised when people are confused at your lack of rationale.





  • Here’s a sincere question, and I don’t mean it in a condescending way:

    Are you a teenager? Like, a 15-18 year old?

    Based on all of these replies you’ve made in this thread, you are so distraught by this perceived realiziation that someone could comment, “I love eating my own shit” and you’d respond saying they only eat their own shit to increase their likelihood of getting laid. People have given plenty of legitimate examples in the comment section and you just always write a paragraph about how “um actually” it’s just a pipeline to sex/reproduction.

    Why are you on Lemmy right now? Are you expressing your distress because you think it will help you pass on your genes?

    If it can reassure you, it’s not an active thing, our brain just sees signs and does the interpretation of how the person feels all by itself

    This varies from person to person. Personally, I’m alexithymic. I had to study body language and facial expressions actively in order to stop being completely blind to other peoples’ emotions/mental states. I solely relied on verbal communication to interpret peoples’ intentions for the first 25 or so years of my life. Made a lot of shit really hard!

    Doing much better these days though.
