You managed to create the most disturbing non-ai foot I've seen today, so that's nice

Love the comics!

I like that it's not a realistic human foot. Sometimes art should capture the idea of a thing rather than just the superficial image of the thing, you know? It has character.

A streamer artist guy says pretty often that you can spend as much time on a foot as the entire rest of the character. Apparently that's how difficult feet are to draw properly lol

Foot: just a stupid, broken hand with tiny fingers and a super fucked up fused wrist. What's so hard about that? (This is a joke, my foot drawings also look fucked. What even are feet?)

Rob Liefeld has entered the chat

I have a nose fetish, and you suck...

You could do a version where he's wearing shoes and is fully on the button board, chair discarded in the background and he's basically just playing Twister with the button board

Why would they get payed that much? this is unskilled labor, they get minimum wage.

That, or they hire an undocumented immigrant for even less. Extra bonus because they can't read the sign that explains the killing thing.

Exactly, just create the conditions and system so that not pushing the button results in poverty and people will line up to push it

One person would get through 1 billion people in 30 years. It would take 120 people pushing it every second of the year to make it a 50/50 that billionaire is killed.

Random person might include the billionaire though.

But that’s the joke?

You’re describing reality.

Even 50million is an extreme amount of money.

You'd have to kill 10,000 people to become a billionaire

You could have just stopped there.

It'd probably still be true, recognizing that billionaires tend to indirectly kill at least that many just from the artificial scarcity required for their hoarding of resources and THEN you add the direct results of their specific actions..

Well, driving to work is basically that. Non zero chance someone dies.

Also factor in when they die. Maybe your action results in a demise after a period of time. Lung Cancer won't kill someone right after they puff a cigarette, so the cigarette baron may not consider it his fault in the sort term.

I'd say at sub-0.1% chances of killing someone, I'd press with impunity. At those low probabilities, they've basically just got hit by lightning at the same time I've pressed a random button.

Granted I'd probably only do it whenever the 100K ran out, so once every couple years. Unless my investments die.

The problem with statistics is that 20% of people in a large population absolutely will die. At least in the context of this meme, the statistics used are gathered from real world data - deaths from cancer, lack of treatment, poor working conditions.

We know because they do this exact thing

It'd get me a sizable down payment on a house with a bit left for expenses. Which is basically the only hurdle to me owning a house at this point. Not that I would kill someone for it... At least not a random person. There's people I'd kill for money.

I'd probably push it a few times I have some very generalized anger issues

i mean, give me a 90% chance of kills me and i'm still pressing the button.

Hell, give me a 100% chance. That'd solve more of my problems than any amount of money.

1 in 8 billion is pretty good odds though.

Most normal people it would be a hard no

You have a lot more faith in humans than I do. If nobody would know, I’d be shocked if more than 50% said no.

"If you could push a button that made you lose $10 but a random billionaire dies, would you do it?"

I don't believe in this being hypothetical anymore.

I guess the billionaire only cares if the death can be attributed to his actions (juristically). Everything else and it doesn't matter.

I wouldn't kill a person for 100K, there are a lot of animals I would not kill for 100K either.

If you look at the comments, you'll see that it does not seem to be true 😊

Ah fuck me those always slip by me thanks

I'd still push it if it was a 50% chance to be me. At least that way I'd leave something nice for my family

I wonder if it would make people less likely to push the button, or more.

Think about how much more you could troll them if you turned that into a billion! Besides, you've got bills to pay. And these taxes are obscene, that money has already been taxed a thousand times! You've taken on quite the burden and deserve to live a little.

And even if you know them, once you reach a certain amount of money you won't care anymore about the serfs.

the next person who gets to press the button doesnt know you either, thats the trick

You can't kill all the stupid people without killing everyone. We're all stupid in our own ways.

Nah they're human just devoid of empathy
