No, terminating a pregnancy before there is a child to abandon would be better. Why would anyone gestate a pregnancy then just walk away? Oh, right because men can't get pregnant

@valuulu_ @honeybee9975 @xevekiah When did I endorse abandoning your kids?????? Literally the opposite of what I believe in. Question though, wouldn’t killing an unborn child be kind of a worst form of abandoning your kids? Damn, I’m good at this.

There’s only one button. It’s blue. If you press it, you and everyone you love is brutally raped and murdered. You don’t have to push it. *But*, the people doing the raping and murdering will *really* enjoy it. Like a lot. What do you do?

@PageBaltimore @littlebatCanada There is no child involved in abortion unless the child is the one seeking the abortion. I know you silly fetus fetishists like to pretend otherwise but there just isn't.

@adrusi I'm too much of a mathematician for this stuff I guess I automatically assumed fractions are ratios of areas and so unaffected by scaling, rotations and translations

Performative altruism is a huge problem. The correct answer to this poll is red. If you answer red, you live. Everyone should thus answer red, and everyone lives. There is zero reason for a single person to press blue, if every person is saved by pressing red, and a blue vote is a toss up if you get killed or not. But people who want to feel morally superior about themselves are choosing the answer they see as altruistic, even though it is objectively incorrect and will get them and others killed. Translate this to the real world and things like criminal justice. Morons allow the axe murderer free, because they want to feel merciful. “Look at me, aren’t I just so magnanimous!”

why would anyone even press blue?!?

The debates over this are interesting. Some people are adamant in "why would you ever press blue?!?!" and some are adamant "why would you ever press red?!?!" Whatever bucket someone falls into I think says a lot about their thought process and their opinion of other humans.

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

Would you like to take no risk at all, or take an unnecessary and possibly fatal risk? Everyone else will face this same choice.

people invoke game theory for such dumb stuff. if youre optimizing for “i and only i survive and idc abt if anyone else dies and i think that more than 50% of other people share this goal” then red is a reasonable pick. this is, however, a stupid starting point
