The trolly problem only works because it's headed towards a large group and you have a choice to make of allowing a thing to happen that you had no part causing in the first place. That is not the case in this situation.

Also never called you an American or said anything about you voting. I was talking about the opinion of Trump. So don't know where that came from, seems a bit defensive.

It’s absolutely defensive, I figure I won’t come off as a “troll” if I declare it when I talk about your politics.

I do agree that the meme has the tracks reversed, and I did forget about the full context, so sorry if you caught my original comment lol, but the whole situation absolutely connects with the actual trolley problem for me.
