Would you rather save 1 human from a painless death or 10^10^10^10^10^10 shrimp from agonizing, torturous deaths?
>>
>>82459697
Neither if there's nothing in it for me to save fictitious people or shrimp.
>>
>>82459697
One human, shrimp are barely aware
>>
humans are malicious and shrimp arent even capable of malice so im letting the human bite the dust
>>
>>82459718
In the fictitious scenario, you have to choose one or you will die and something bad that you'd care about will happen.

The human, for clarity, is not you or anyone you know personally, and for the racists among us let's say they're a member of your race, whatever you consider that to be.

>>82459697
who said I'd want to save any of them?
>>

>you will die
Dying is good
>something bad that you'd care about will happen.
I'll be dead so I won't care

i would rather save 1 shrimp from a painless death than 10^10^10^10^10^10 humans from agonizing, torturous deaths
>>
>>82459697
Do I get the shrimp corpses? You can sell it
>>
>>82459798
whoa... its like ... you dont even care ... bretty BADASS if you ask me..
>>
>>82459697
10^10^10^10^10^10 Shrimp. I think you're grossly overestimating the amount of value human beings hold.
>>
>>82459697
the human, most shrimp are going to have agonizing deaths regardless
>>
>>82459697
Thats a lot of shrimp, i might go for that
>>
>>82459697
Hear me out. That number of shrimp, over time, could evolve into something with even greater capacity for intelligence and feeling than the one human.
>>
>>82460269
>could
So what? The human could cure cancer for all you know
>>
>>82460192
Well, what value do shrimp hold?
>>
thats a lot of shrimp man
