    Why are we assuming it’s a passenger train? It’s probably just a choice between a small child or a middle aged conductor who did survive according to the illustration if only because they decided to draw him in afterwards as a form of censorship.

      I only assume that it’s not an autonomous train. And I’m not making any points about morality here, that sounds exhausting and I’d rather leave that to a lawyer or judge. I’m just saying, from a physics standpoint, moving the girl instead of stopping the training would’ve saved no fewer lives and not damaged any infrastructure. Just some constructive feedback Supes, I love what you’re doin ♥️♥️♥️

      Please pardon me if I’m missing something obvious. I don’t understand how censorship is involved.

        Well if they didn’t draw him in we’d all be assuming Superman murdered that guy just like user Oops just declared.

          Okay, thank you. I didn’t understand your use of the word “censorship”. That’s not common usage in American English, which is all I speak.

            Look, if you were to retroactively remove implications or references to morbidity, gore, and death then that would be censorship exactly how everyone uses the word.
