I don't think it's simply a matter of being selfless. The concept that my death would prevent the deaths of everyone else on Earth is so huge and removed from reality that I don't think I could even comprehend it. It would take a lot of very convincing proof to get me to accept the premise, let alone make the decision.

Except getting a vaccine saves yourself. You ain't sacrificing shit.

Yes. At least, I'd like to think I would. It's easy to answer this without having faced it in reality--and I imagine that could go both ways. Some people saying no now may change their minds if put in that spot.

As it stands, I would. I'd like to say my goodbyes and all of that. But yeah. It's kind of a no brainer for me. I'd do it for less than all of humanity.

The weird thing is I'd probably do it for less than all of humanity. Like a kid or a love one, but the feelings I have with humanity as a whole just isn't pleasant. Really doesn't make sense since that kid or love one would be part of humanity.

Depends entirely on the exact stakes and circumstances. I need to know for certain that my sacrifice makes a difference in a way that counts, and what the alternatives are.
(And since this is not a UR topic, you don't get to say "there are no alternatives you either do it or not and I'm gonna argue your answer regardless of which")

Would I sacrifice myself to save the whole of humanity from a disease? That is a hard question, but I would have to say yes. There are people and kids that are full of potential that may die from this disease and I guess it if better that someone who life he has wasted and can't ever reach his potential.

The downside to voting yes is that my goal won't get achieved.
