A two-panel comic. Main panel: a yellow caption box reads "PHILOSOPHY PRO TIP: ALL MORAL DILEMMAS ARE EASY TO SOLVE IN REVERSE," followed by the prompt "IF YOU COULD SET ELDERLY MEN ON FIRE AND NEW VAN GOGHS WOULD POP OUT LIKE A LOOT DROP WHEN THEY DIE, WOULD YOU DO IT?" A balding man with round glasses in a gray suit stands next to a woman with orange hair and a pink jacket, who enthusiastically replies, "HELL YEAH. AWESOME." The joke flips the classic trolley-problem framing so the morally monstrous option sounds obviously appealing. Votey (aftercomic, rough black-and-white sketch of a man's face): he says, "HELL, I'LL TAKE A KLIMT. FUCK THESE GUYS," upping the ante by naming another famous painter and gleefully condemning the elderly men.
