I'm sorry if this came off as me saying murder bad. It was a parody of a diffrent meme saulying you can only watch and a stuck figure is just watching the trolly run over people. I'd upload it now but my app won't let me. Says imagine uploading is down currently.

But

This meme stops the trolly

Hey, there's nothing wrong with your meme. In fact it's a nice one.

I'm reacting to the "murder is always bad" take that I've seen in many related threads about this topic.

I know I came off a bit aggressive, but that's not towards you. I'm just frustrated with the topic. Thanks for the calm and reasonable response. Cheers!

Violence is always a solution.

Societal evolution has led us to a point where we'd like it to be the last solution, once all others are exhausted.

But when they are, there it is. It'll solve any problem in the world, guaranteed. Maybe not well, and not cleanly, but solved it will be.
