*adjusts glasses*
Moral hypotheticals are merely a philosophical tool made to make you think more deeply about how reasoning works. The actual outcome is irrelevant, the point of them isn’t to cause you to make a decision but to somehow apply rationality to some abstract concept. Would you kill 10^100 shrimp to save a human life?
>>716185882 (OP)
People affected by world hunger would never contribute to humanity regardless, unlike people affected by cancer. Ergo, I'd end cancer.
>>716186582 >Would you kill 10^100 shrimp to save a human life
I would eat 10^100 shrimps for my own enjoyment if it wouldn't hurt me, they are beneath me
>>716186582
I don't think there's even that many shrimp in the world.
But regardless of that, I'm pretty sure wiping out all the shrimp on Earth would cause some extremely devastating chain reactions in the food chain that would probably result in the deaths of far more than just a single person, so I'm going to have to let that person die instead.
You faggots realize the more well fed a population gets the less growth it has because every country has to deal with 'aging population'? fucking read stats
>>716185882 (OP)
Feeding all the hungry would raise the population of niggers around the globe exponentially. So, it has to be the cure for cancer for me.
>>716186882
That only happens when they learn to feed themselves, because intelligent people also just naturally have less kids.
But when you just give infinite free food to retarded primitive third worlders, they don't learn anything and just keep reproducing without limit like the dumb animals they are.
>>716186852
This is entirely the point. You got it or maybe didn’t, I don’t know. But these moralistic hypotheticals exist to make you think. It’s not about the shrimp, it’s about how you think about the worth of a human life. Any human. But the question isn’t supposed to be answered, it’s to make you evaluate how your mind works
But yeah also that would be more shrimp than there are atoms in the universe. We’re gonna need more old bay

not even a debate
also we had solved world hunger long time ago and we over-produce food. its only a problem in some shitholes where civilization doesn't exist
