Now here's a little brain teaser for you shubbers

Let's say there is a parallel universe to our own, everything is the same except it's all opposite, morality, gender roles, likes and dislikes. Just basically everything that has a variable is reversed, so gravity stays the same but things like actions done and prey and predator are reversed. Your actions are mimicked by your opposite counterpart.

So here's the brain teaser, if you do an active good and save someone who was stabbed and that said person is grateful towards your action, how would the counterpart be? Would the counterpart have stabbed the person in correlation to your saving and the person be ungrateful due to the fact that they were grateful in your universe? Or would they be grateful due to the fact that in that universe stabbing = good. But wouldn't that contradict the man being grateful in your universe?

Well, I think the best course of action is to do nothing, since if you save someone, the opposite of that is not saving them. If you do nothing, they would be ungrateful that you didn't stab them, since stabbing is good, therefore fulfilling all the opposites.

no one normal likes pain. Morals and laws are different, a world like that would be utter chaos. You need rules to keep order, so a crime involving bodily harm on a person is still going to be punished and frowned upon.

So i'd STILL be saving that person but hey'd probably be a dick about it. "I could've taken him, I didn't need you. Fucking prick" and such.

That said, I could go and fuck a 14 year old just fine as long as she consents and no one would say a thing since some laws are moral-based. More about how society views certain actions such as pedophilia. Moral reversal worlds, things like that arent going to be a big deal
