Ethical Dilemmas to Challenge Your Mind – Do You Think Like the Majority?

Alright, picture this: A runaway trolley is hurtling down the tracks. If you do nothing, it’s gonna mow down five people. But hey, lucky you! You’re standing by a lever. Pull it, and the trolley switches tracks… straight into one person.

Your dad’s the president of a powerful country—cool, right? Until he decides to invade a poor nation for its resources. You know it’s messed up.

Same scenario, different twist. The train’s about to hit a person. The only way to stop it? Push a big ol’ animal off a bridge onto the tracks. The animal is just chilling, living its best life. Probably thinking about snacks or something.

You’re a professional hitman, no big deal. Taking out bad guys is just another Tuesday—until your next target turns out to be someone you love. Your boss swears they’re a villain, but you know them better.

Your bestie is about to marry a guy who seems perfect… except you work for him, and surprise—he’s laundering money and cheating on her. Oh, and the wedding’s in two days.

You’re a wildlife photographer on assignment. Suddenly, you spot a bunch of penguins getting attacked. You could step in and save them, but your crew says, “No interference—it’s nature’s way.”

You’re a well-respected philosopher in ancient Greece. Honor and justice mean everything to you. Then, one day, you catch your own mother stealing.

Imagine there’s a simulation where you can live your absolute dream life—perfect health, endless wealth, zero stress. But once you enter, you can never go back to reality.

You’ve invented a pill that grants eternal life. Overpopulation, eternal heartbreak, people who never leave bad relationships… oof.

You launch a website where people can debate politics freely. But some users take it too far, forming extreme groups. Others feel unsafe.

You’re a surgeon. You’ve got three patients desperately needing organ transplants. Then, you realize your current patient—who has no chance of survival—has perfectly good organs.

Your ship is stranded at sea because of you. There’s no food, and people are side-eyeing each other like they’re sizing up steak cuts.

You’re programming a self-driving car. A crash is inevitable: either it collides with another vehicle or swerves into pedestrians.

Your time machine has one use. You can erase a historical villain… or undo your own biggest regret.

Two boxes. One has $500, but you have to fight three people for it. The other could have anywhere from $1 to $1 million, but you only have to fight one person.
