    None of them are problems. Boat-who cares, trolly- least deaths, teleporter- once again who fucking cares? Teleporting is cool. None of these are interesting questions.

        How? I'd say it's pretty boring. It happens to everyone and no one knows for sure if anything happens after. Case closed. I have no power or responsibility related to it aside from not murdering people.

                No it's not. They walk in voluntarily and are reconstructed on the other end with their memories and conciousness preserved. Coming out with a cloned body that's the exact same and your mind unchanged means, yes it doesn't matter if some concept of the original technically dies.

                Comparing it to not caring about a homeless person dying is not only absurd but frankly fucking offensive to me. But I guess I'm a sociopath anyway.

                    Also please tell me the things we know about conciousness that contradict it. You will be a highly regarded philosopher if you can manage.

                    It's not suicidal because you are reconstructed as a living thing. I have maybe .1% percent of the same cells that i did at birth. Does that make me a different person? What if I needed a transplant and that .1% was no longer there? Does that mean my infant self is dead and I'm a different person? Draw the line.
