Mostly my hidden agenda is to point out that real utilitarianism would not look like choosing torture. It looks like saying “hey people, I’m your servant, tell me what you want me to be and I’ll mold myself into it as best I can”.
This can also lead to the situation where if everyone decides to be a utilitarian, you wind up with a bunch of people asking each other what they want and answering “I want whatever the group wants”.
