A utilitarian, eh? So, a group of men with runaway diarrhea are going to shit in five toilets who do not want to be shit in. You have no way of stopping them, but if you pull a lever they will instead be diverted to a single toilet-that-does-not-want-to-be-shit-in. What is the correct action to take in this scenario?
All, the natural evolution to the trolly-problem
Damn. We have a different problem here, the group of army men don't want to shit together in the same toilet.
I never thought of the trolley problem with a sentient trolley
To shit on something that isn't sentient that doesn't want to be shit on. Possibly the ground where it can be used as fertilizer for plants.
