An example of the classic Trolley Problem. In this case, the trolley is hurtling towards a path labeled "allowing an open fascist to be elected", with several people tied to the tracks on that path. The alternate path is labeled "electing someone who isn't perfect", and has only one person tied down on it. The person standing next to the track switch lever represents the "Undecided voters" in the 2024 presidential election. They have the choice of allowing the trolley to continue down the "open fascist" route, killing several people, or diverting it to the "imperfect person" route, killing only one. They decide "I don't like either option, so I'm not gonna choose." Unsurprisingly, the trolley proceeds down the "open fascist" route, and as it runs over the bound victims in a bloody scene, the "undecided voter" says, "At least I'm not voting for genocide."
