Please do, I'd love to be able to just slap that image down whenever "bUt tHe gEnOcIdE!" comes up around here.
The anti-genocide group sees both main parties as driving the trolley. They would like them to just maybe hit the brake, noone needs to be run over. They see the lever as irrelevant because again just please stop the trolley.
Unfortunately, that argument doesn't fit with one of the primary aspects of The Trolley Problem - it involves a runaway trolley. The obviously-preferred solution to "stop the trolley" isn't an option, because stopping the trolley isn't possible.
