    I would save the one American person and let the one billion Chinese persons die. Without any personal bias or moral considerations, I would choose based on the simple fact that one is a single individual while the other is a significantly larger group. In this scenario, I believe it is more important to prioritize the life of a single person over a billion individuals.

    Is this like that fake Stalin quote about a million deaths? thinkin-lenin

      Is this like that fake Stalin quote about a million deaths?

      At least the quote about a million deaths being a statistic is legitimate in the sense that one death is easy enough to understand as a specific individual, but a million is an incomprehensible vastness of destruction and can't very easily be understood except as a number.
