Topic Discussion - Ethical Dilemmas

Join us for a discussion of Ethical Dilemmas in works of science fiction. For purposes of this discussion, we will consider an ethical dilemma as one in which a character must make a choice between two bad outcomes.
.
A classical formulation of the concept is the philosophical thought experiment of The Trolley Problem (made literal in an episode of The Good Place).
.
Other iterations are found in many works of science fiction including Ursula K LeGuin's The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas, Tom Godwin's The Cold Equations, and Star Trek's The City on the Edge of Forever.
