My morals are firmly in place, thank you. But just because a person presents an opportunity for something to happen, does not mean that person is good or bad.
It is the action of the person pushing the button that is the question.
I don't think the creator of the exhibit is the asshole. I think the guy that pushed the button on the blender is the asshole.
Similarly, the people who make the website to feed the dogs aren't "great people", the person that clicks the link is the great person.
It's all about choice and consequences.
If "John" gives "Bill" a choice, and "Bill" chooses poorly, and his choice has negative effects, "Bill" has no one to blame but himself. "John" isn't the dumbass. "Bill" is.
