Another uncomfortable ethics question!
#17
RE: Another uncomfortable ethics question!
Whichever group contains the individual that suffers the most (be it human or duck or any other form of 'sufferer') is the group I prioritize because that would prioritize saving the individual suffering the most. If neither group contains any individual that suffers the most out of both groups then all individuals in both groups all suffer equally, so then it doesn't matter which group I save so long as I do it as quick as possible (if I am to be the most moral I can be).
