What if I take the dollar value out of it? If I'm willing to die to save 100 people, does that also invalidate my opinion?
I apologize if this comes across as an ad hominem, but do you drive to work? To me that seems like much the same thing, but to a lesser extent; you're accepting several micromorts in exchange for money.
That changes everything. In a moment of crisis, I too would sacrifice myself for 100 people. I would not on the other hand, go to be slaughter in exchange for 100 people in a per-planned act.
I actually am fortunately close enough to my work where that I do not need to drive. Why?
Because there is a risk associated with driving, so instead of going to a 100% certain slaughter, you'd be going to an x% certain slaughter. But if you are biking/walking then the exercise helps, so my hat's off to you. Way to be more consistent than I had cynically imagined!
But your unwillingness to die to save others (non-emergency) - no offense - sounds kinda selfish. What about you is so much more valuable than 100 other people? And when
isn't it a crisis? People are dying
right now.
