    100 people hands down. Infinite people means infinite lives removed, infinite experiences etc. The 100 people will never truly die either, so if minimizing death is the goal, that’s best. It also is the choice that will happen without your input and those are usually better morally than actively changing and sentencing other people to death by yourself.

      Plus, it’s assumed that the trolley will never stop. It’s easier to utilize its free energy if it’s running in a circle.

      I vote for fair distribution of suffering, instead of to just 100 people.

        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.

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

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

            Would you change your answer based on where you are on the tracks?
