Well... the linked Ultimate Trolley problem is a parody.I
f this is a parody, it's evidently interesting enough to think about anyway.
Can you explain why Eliezer's motives for writing it should limit what anyone else chooses to do with it?
ETA: Parent edited. This now makes less sense as a response.
yeah, sorry. I realized that even though the first sentence on its own was a simple true statement, it might connotate that I thought that everyone who was taking it seriously was being silly when I really just meant to innocently point out some evidence that aligned with summerstay's opinion that it might be parody (or serious-but-parody-mimicking, or something). So I added a second sentence to disassociate myself from the connotation that might otherwise be inferred.
