Would people push the red or blue button in your country?
>>
>>221012710
So, this is basically high-trust vs. low-trust society, right? Since we're low-trust, I'd say red would prevail
>>
>>221012710
99% of brazilians wouldn't even understand this question
>>
>>221012710
every xitterchud that spends their time talking about developing a "high trust" society started arguing for why they would press the red button.

Also, the fact that the blue button won after going around in the "might makes right" twitter sphere is embarrassing for these knuckle dragging chuds that think that the rest of society are mindless apes like them.

What’s the average race of blue button pushers and red button pushers? I won’t push the red button if as I suspect they’re mostly third world browns
>>
>>221012710
this is a terrible thought experiment. the "unethical option" is supposed to be unethical and expose dubious moral characters. if everyone presses red everyone survives. any logical person will recognize this. there's no moral downside to pressing red.

telling your loved ones to press blue places them at risk, while telling them to press red saves them whichever color wins. there's no moral dilemma.

I wanna press blue but irl I'd probably press red out of fear that others got scared too

give me the button to end it. i've had enough.
>>
>>221012710
The question is phrased to make people think about the first condition and has language like "everyone survives"
That is unironically why the result is the way it is and it's not deeper than that

If you phrased it like "This is the 'press red game.' If even less than 50% presses red then everyone wins. If you press red then you win. But if you press blue then you have a chance to lose."
Then that would change the outcome of the poll

If you think you're smarter than a xittertard then you are fart huffing. Obviously you are smarter than a xittertard. That this retarded poll has captured your attention is a bigger indictment of you than trolling their poll is
>>
It's so funny watching self-centered people wrestle with the idea of thinking about other people.
>>
>>221012710
Why doesn't everyone just press the red button?
>>
>>221013610
Because of the phrasing.

The first instinct of many is to treat blue as the selfless option and red as the selfish option. Most people, if they spend even half a second thinking, will realize that it would be better if everyone just pressed red. But the phrasing immediately primed them to the blue option due to their mindset (or the mindset they pretend to have with no skin in the game), and their mind will move onto rationalizing the choice. The most common form of this is "there are other people who might've pressed blue, it would be selfish not to try to save them". The reason why you can tell that is often a mere rationalization rather than an actual reason behind their choice is that if the phrasing of the question was different (ie something that made it clearer that blue is about wishing for your own death), they would most likely switch options.
>>
>>221012773
How is it might makes right?
Just call the buttons "survive" and "die" and the outcomes would be everyone presses red, everyone survives, everything is moral

>>
>>221012710
It's an imperative to press blue because while well-meaning but naive people from civilized countries would press it while savage third worlders would not hesitate to choose red, and we cannot risk the further demographic degradation of human civilization.
>>
>>221019287
>well-meaning but naive people from civilized countries
These are exactly the people who lead our civilized nations to ruin though. If they stopped existing, we could wholly get rid of the third world because nobody would be left to complain about it.
>>
>>221019287
It's actually an evolving question because every cycle of consideration adds more people to the blue pile.
Do you want to save the naive people?
Do you want to save the people who want to save the naive people?
Do you want to save the people who want to save the people who want to save the naive people?
Do you want to sa... you get the idea.

>>221012710
Red is the incel button, and I don't mean it in some trivial sense of "poopoo incel virgin xD". Women would in general choose blue and if red wins we would witness the male-to-female ratios that would make the current dating and marriage market look like a paradise for men, it would be a absolute carnage
It might be a decent deal if you're gay I guess
>>
The downside of pressing red is that you kill people you fucking bugmen
>>
>>221019320
You would become the third world yourself though because there are no well-meaning people left and only the ones with the short sighted self-centered thirdie mindset would be left and they would quickly turn any country into a shithole.
>>
>>221012710
Why shouldn't I expect all people to just press red and save themselves without any downsides instead pressing blue and taking risk and expecting other people to sacrifice themselves together for no reason? This is not a zero-sum game.

Red guarantees survival, so I would press red. In fact, if everyone pressed red, everyone would survive. Seems pretty obvious what should be done.

This is just a dark triad filter. If you press red, you're one or more of the three of narcissist, psychopath, and sociopath.

The reason is that you're trying to game theory how to survive, but it's very easy to survive. Press the blue button. So if you press the red button, you either you want to kill people (psychopath/sociopath) or you don't care if others survive as long as you survive yourself, and you think most would press red because you assume everyone is as selfish as you (narcissist).

In most cases, red would be roughly less than a third of the population.

>>221021076
Technically yes, but not everyone will push the same button. Many wouldn't even want to live in a world where red prevails because it would be a world of self-centeredness and disregard for others. In reality, most will push blue because they have empathy. The red button is only to see if you're have dark triad traits and identify people who lack empathy.

So here's the kicker. If you now feel motivated to say you'd push blue, not because you actually would, but rather because you don't want people to identify you as something bad, that's also a trait of the dark triad. Manipulativeness.
>>
>>221021269

Everyone should be encouraged to press red though. There are literally no downsides to pressing red. If you press blue, you risk death for literally no reason.

This is dark triad rationalization. I'd easily bet my life. The majority will press blue every time. Dark triad is a comparatively small part of the population and will always lose a popular vote.
>>

>>
>>221020925
its actually a retard filter, you only press red if you think youre special and a sigma lone wolf, but at bare minimum, half the population also has to think that
so really, picking red leaves you with half the population that can't think 2 steps ahead
>>
>>221012710
I would press the red button if I was sure that no one would know that I had pressed the red button.
>>
>>221022030
Well, yes. You could never get everyone in the world to press the same button, so a lot of people will die if red button wins. It's really the only outcome of convincing more that 50% to press red. Dark triad tend to be retarded in this regard, because their mental illness tends to overshadow all rationality.

It would be interesting to see this question posed to different social groups. It would be easy to see which groups attract dark triad traits.

Blue pressers are willing to risk ending the human experiment to save people too stupid to run a basic game theory in their mind.

my friends and family aren't dumb retards, who would push blue. as for the rest, they can get rekt for all I care. everyone over the IQ of 90 would push red. only the OMG WE'RE TOTALLY LIKE FRICKIN MARVEL HEROES Y'ALL types would push blue. t

btw it's literally the same as the covid vaccine dilemma.
it's a virus with a 99.9% survival rate among people under 70. if you don't take the vax, you still have incredibly good chances of surviving an infection.
if you take it, your already insanely high chances MAY go higher, but you also MAY get adverse side effects. and as of 2026, we all know that they were harmful and we have court rulings to prove it.
people who's push blue are the same people who got triple vaxxed and got heart attacks at the ripe age of 26.

Its a humiliation ritual question. By pressing blue, you terminally devalue your own life in a guaranteed vain attempt to save stupid subhumans who also pressed the blue button. You throw your life away purely because other low iq cretins dont understand what the best option is.

By pressing red, you are a categorically smarter person as you don't throw your own life away for no reason and join other red button pushers who passed the iq filter survival test.

Are you pretending to not understand the question?

>>221023393
Not the same at all. By taking the vaccine you decreased the chance of passing the virus on, and nobody chose to get infected. In the blue/red scenario you literally choose to either live or risk death. There's zero downside to red, only downside to blue.

judging by the discussion on other websites I think the fundamental problem is that too many oversocialized faggots are completely unable to parse the concept of personal responsibility. every action must be taken as part of the collective. you can't let even one retard die, everyone has to risk their lives to save them.

which just makes me more red-pilled. people who think like that actively deserve to die, they ruin everything in society.

no there are actual honest to god bluepillers out there, mostly leftists. they see themselves as responsible for the hypothetical niggers and braindead boomers who would get confused and press blue.

here we can just openly admit that retards who fuck up a task this simple deserve to die, but in many social circles that's not an idea they are allowed to entertain. obviously pressing red is the nash equilibrium game theoretically, but when you introduce performative morality and virtue signaling in the mix the calculus changes.

I’m a libertarian racist chud but I would press the blue button without any fear or aversion, and I don’t understand why this thought experiment provokes political implications or controversy.
Humans are animals born with a very collectivist and “altruistic” instinct, even though it mostly manifests in negative ways. I believe that those who think red will win are the naive ones who have no interest in politics or the study of human behavior and are completely detached from the real world.
>>
>>221028253
They don't think they're responsible for niggers, or any social justice in general. If they did then they would be tending gardens in black neighborhoods and working alongside nuns in soup kitchens, they would be building houses, tutoring black kids, etc etc. At the heart of it I think they don't think they're responsible for anything. They loathe and resent the implication of the concept of duty or responsibility entirely.

They just hate you in particular the way a middle class English dinner party guy hates the working class Englishman. It will never make sense. And their hatred goes so deep they will leverage niggers to make everyone around them as miserable as they are in their own minds.

Judas Iscariot for example got really pissy with Mary of Bethany when she annointed Christ's feet with expensive oil.

in a blue majority, if one person accidentally slips and falls on the red button 100% of people are saved
in a red majority, if one person accidentally slips and falls on the blue button 100% of people are not saved

blue has error correction, red has not. rational actor chooses blue to minimize death.

of course this was never about ethics or rationality, it's about whether you take pleasure in raising the risk of mass cullings or are bothered by the idea of raising that risk. turns out for the majority of earth's population it's the latter because most people aren't amoral psychos who fantasize about mass cullings (edgelords).

this really exposes the fundamentals of so-called "right wing" vs "left wing" mentality. blue button pushers assume that most other people will also push the blue button because they assume that most other people share their same values and beliefs and thus their same idea of right and wrong. it's a sort of narcissism or perhaps just naivete if we're being charitable. but you see this quite clearly in arguments about immigration. leftists refuse to even entertain the idea that people from a different culture might have different values and thus different concepts of right vs wrong. they think the only difference between cultures is food, music, and clothing and they like strange food, music and clothing so why not bring tons of foreigners in? "I want to press the blue button therefore everyone wants to press the blue button"
a red button pusher, on the other hand, does not presume to know the minds of millions of other people and thus presses the red button because it's the safest and most logical choice.
it's also the "heat map" in action. blue button pushers are desperately trying to save the lives of people they dont know. but to what end? if you look at the state of blue button cities I think you'll find the answer.

Wisdom and intelligence is not a measure of moral worth. It is virtuous to save lives regardless of how stupid the ones being saved are. Our individual lives do not mean too much in the end - meandering for under a century at best. To risk total death with the possibility of saving even two other moral beings, regardless of their wisdom, is virtue beyond compare. You cannot achieve more meaning in life than that.

There is. You cannot guarantee everyone pressing red, and it is morally wrong to condemn everyone who pressed blue to die if there is a chance they don't make 50%, simply because one person has made the choice to press blue.

Again, as I said, our individual lives don't have much meaning if you take no risk. You can die meaningless of old age, or you can die for abstract but virtuous chances beyond your consciousness.

That's a good question and I don't have the answer for that sadly, I'm just going by what's stated and since it says everyone gets a button I assume 'everyone' is regardless of age an autonomy since that means people who can't understand the question would also be given the choice too. I'm just pushing the blue button out of my own moral choice, really. I'm aware the red button is the most logical but I myself couldn't really live in a world knowing that my choice directly resulted in the deaths of a lot of people.
>>
>>221037250
Why are you so obsessed with force? I'm not going to force anyone to pick blue. In this dilemma we do not know for certain who picks what, that is the point of the dilemma. I pick blue because of the uncertainty. If I knew outright that red would win as a committed fact, then pressing blue would save no one, and thus there is no virtue, and I would press red. But there is no fact, no divine writ that guarantees red will win.

Yeah it'd have to rephrased as a button being given all adults of a sound mind and have it purely affect them only in terms of the vote. But even with the tightening of the scope you're still looking at the potential deaths of millions or billions which would ultimately leave a lot of orphaned children and dependents. There's also the aftermath of the vote, let's just red wins with 60% of the vote. Do the other 40% just drop dead on the spot? That's a lot of bodies that have to be dealt with fast before it causes serious problems not to mention the sight itself would be fucking grisly man. Red is the most logical but blue avoids the issues entirely.
>>
>>221037355
???
How did anything about my comment imply force? I said I would press blue, even if you pressed red, for YOUR sake. You said people had the right to pursue other social virtues. But there is no guarantee you CAN achieve those virtues without help - or have the people to achieve those virtues FOR - if the people that would have helped you or received the benefits of your virtue perish because they pressed blue and the blue vote fell below the 50% mark.

By pressing blue, I therefore maximize the chance you can succeed in your other virtues, and it does not even guarantee my own death. If I press blue and fail, then you still have the lesser chance to pursue a lesser virtue.

Right, but not everyone's going to vote red anyway because of the framing of the vote itself. It's kind of a shitty crapshoot no matter what. A lot of people will die regardless unless there's a miracle and 51% vote blue.
>>
>>221037431
You think 40% of adults would press blue? You do know if that scale tips slightly in the other direction it's complete extinction. I would at least like to have enough faith in humanity to know they could pick the choice with no drawback at all rather than believe that 40% of humanity needs to have their reasoning carried by self-sacrificing cynics.
>>
>>221037360
The answer will be radically different depending on the millions of contexts this can be applied to, because all actions have a purpose and the point is to decide based on circumstances what the most virtuous act for society is.
>>
>>221037469
Maybe? There's like what, 5 billion adults on this planet? It's important to understand what you might consider to be the logical choice might not be the logical choice another and humans by and large aren't well known for being logical under duress. This singular vote would apply an ungodly amount of pressure on everyone that I can't even fathom to be.
>>
>>221037507
So if it's uncertain which way they vote there's a risk of extinction regardless of what you press, except one of those buttons assure that people live regardless of outcome. It's not a community vote you can't just tell people we're all voting blue.
>>
>>221037496
the context is different but your logic would still apply, that's the point. What's so different about the idots jumping into the wood chopper that you're not willing to save them now?
The answer is that your reasoning is based on vibes, that's why it can change so much depends on the wording of the question.
>>
>>221037537
Well, the way I see it there's two "perfect" scenarios that play out in this vote.

>a) 100% of people vote red and nobody dies
>b) 51% of people vote blue and nobody dies

I would say b) is a little more achievable in this hypothetical perfect scenario. But if we go with the more realistic outcome where red wins by a majority that means depending on how many vote blue that could be anywhere between 1-49% of the adult population dropping dead instantly. I don't think it'd be an extinction level event but even red winning would set us back pretty far collectively as a species just from potentially losing out on a massive chunk of the genepool.
>>
>>221037621
The way I see it is if the blue vote gets to 40% that's still 40% of people dead. And since the choice is uncertain all you have is your reasoning faculties. So if I see the correct choice the only thing stopping me from pushing red is thinking that most of humanity will push blue even though it makes absolutely no sense. The only thing driving the choice of pushing blue is cynicism or trying to stop people who are making what's effectively a suicide attempt.

You just have to make a lot of grounded assumptions rather than commit to absolutes. It is unlikely everyone is going to pick red or everyone is going to pick blue.
>>221037613
>The answer is that your reasoning is based on vibes, that's why it can change so much depends on the wording of the question.
The "wording" of the question forms the context of each dilemma, and my reasoning will change based on context. Virtue is dependent on context.
>>
>>221037674
Like I said, red is the most logical choice but blue is the most correct one. I could press red and live no matter what but do I honestly want to live in a world where 40% of the adult population dies in that scenario? It'd be downright apocalpytic.
>>
>>221037704
I suppose, maybe it's delusional, but I can't see a world where over 20% of adults push blue unless for some reason they really want to kill themselves. Pushing blue and dying at least gets you out of living through a situation where 40% pushed blue, but I'd like to believe that the majority of adults can make decisions for themselves. If the question was as poorly worded as the twitter post I'd push blue because kids are retarded, but if it was only adults I'd push red and not think twice.

Even at 20% that's still a fifth of the adult population gone and there'd be severe infrastructual damage to civilization for years to come. The only way where red doesn't lead to real damage being done to society it'd have be in the margins of at least 95%+ and I don't see that happening sadly. I think the only logical conclusion that one could reach is that the vote is just a giant trap made to kill as many people as possible in one go and the way to avoid the trap entirely is if 51% vote blue.

That's the real tragedy ain't it? All you need is just ever so slightly more than half the voters to push the blue button and life continues on normal. But pushing red, guaranteeing your survival would potentially mean the end of human civilization as we know it.
>>
>>221037776
It also matters who presented it. Gods? What gods? The God? Aliens? What kind of aliens? If it were a man-made problem it would almost never certainly come to a pure logical calculation, there would always be context of who was involved, who would benefit, etc.
>>
>>221037819
It's some kind of a trap by giving an option with 0 repercussions, like if you vote blue and fail the rest of people eat the loss anyway. So all I'm left with is believing that the majority of adults can solve the world's simplest logic puzzle as a question of faith. There's no reason to push blue outside of paranoia or cynicism. You're not responsible for other adult's decision making on a day to day basis unless they have some form of severe mental handicap. If this wasn't a private vote it's easy to organize, but it's not and you're left with a question of faith.
>>
>>221037888
Blue only needs a simple majority that won't lead to everything getting fucked afterwards, it just depends on people's ability to look beyond self interest in that moment so it really does come down a vote of faith. Do you have faith that 95% of adults will vote for red in that moment or 51% of adults voting blue in that moment?
>>
people with certain narcissistic traits fail to understand not everyone thinks like them. they assume pressing blue means 50% risk of death and their self-preservation instinct kicks in, this is a misreading of the hypothetical based on extreme lack of empathy; they think others too are only out for themselves and have disregard for human life other than their own, and would vote unpredictably (possibly deceptively).

in reality most people care deeply about others, KNOW that others care about them too, and would be uncomfortable contributing to the option that could cause mass deaths across the board when the alternative is harm reduction.


>>221037102
>the burden of killing would fall onto the first person to press blue, since they would be the one to cause the cascade of deaths of others accounting for them
glaring false equivalence reveals this as a troll post. it's an interesting point nonetheless so let's pick apart and examine what the the actual cascade would look like:

>a mother cares for her baby, un-conditional blue. her husband cares for her, un-conditional blue. (repeat this for half a billion mothers, their husbands, friends and extended families. repeat for pretty much every religious person.) the average joe then goes "huh, lots of blue. well, death is pretty bad mkay, everybody knows that..."

before you know it 50% of the planet has "cascaded" into voting blue. so the results come in, turns out everyone has been saved, and here's that one neckbeard in his basement who has analyzed the risk matrix, trying to tell all the mothers and fathers of the world they've actually just done moral wrong and are the real, objective sociopaths in this situation.
>>
>>221037962
I'm uncertain which way the vote will go to begin with, so all I'm left with is picking the option that makes sense. Picking blue and failing is just as bad an outcome unless you wanted to die. Also you grossly overestimate the amount of people needed for labor we just went through covid and saw just how many jobs were essential, it was around 52%. We're even seeing economists talk about Malthus again seriously. You're hinging on a vote you don't control either way and with no way to negotiate for the optimal outcome, but I do have the ability to assume that most adults have some ability to reason. It's going to come down to faith unless you can outright influence the vote.
>>
>>221038044
I think the only logicial conclusion that can be derived is that red will win but a lot of people are going to die regardless. While you can't account for who votes blue but there's the potential you could lose a lot of technical and high expert people of their respective fields in society too which will lead to more knock on effects down the track. Just because of how humans think and operate, it could just be sheer statistical certainy that a decent chunk of humans will die from this theorectical vote and instead of it being a question of faith. It's just a question of, do you want to live in a world where the red vote wins and whatever consequences that might stem from that?

It's more about responsibility at that point. Like if you worked a highly specialized job that couldn't be easily replaced and you risked blue only to have the vote fail then you put your sector at risk. Specialists generally are very aware of how important their job is, I couldn't imagine one pressing blue unless it was suicide. So if you feel some responsibility to be in the world you press red even if the outcome is horrible to live through you work it through the best you can. I'm confident most people have the ability to reason and if a large blue vote fails it's just as bad for everyone who pressed red. Why wouldn't I vote for what I think will be the majority rather than gamble on a utopian outcome? Wouldn't the absolute best outcome be everyone pressing red and you can know the world is completely sane and doesn't need their hand held?
>>
>>221038195
I don't know the nitty gritty of it and I can't speak to others but regardless of your education level and speciality, a lot of people do value their morality quite highly and might not see it as logically as you do. People can and will vote on their conscience, just remember that. Also I think the notion that 51% voting on blue so nobody dies being "Utopian" is kind of silly because to achieve the same result you need 100% people voting red for nobody to die. I feel like your biases are starting to show.
>>

>>221038265
I can't read the conscience of every person any more than I can assume that they have the ability to understand the vote. Many people have different ideas of morality, I'm sure more people can figure out question with a zero-sum answer than they can resolve their own moral code so I have no reason not to think red wouldn't be the majority. And if red is more likely then blue is a more dangerous gamble. If this was a question of optimal outcome then 100% red is the best outcome because you can be assured that people can resolve simple logic privately. There's almost no chance of it happening, so it's completely utopian, more so than blue. If I didn't think blue was likely then I'd have no reason to press it outside of wanting a utopian outcome against the odds, or sense of paranoia of living through a social collapse after the vote.

>, this is basically high-trust vs. low-trust society, right?
no, it's simple cooperation

>since we're low-trust, I'd say red would prevail
you think australia is a low trust society is stunning. also picking red, I think the reason blue won the poll is because retards like you need us to save you from yourselves, like you read the exact same words as us, but you had a comprehension failure and picked the wrong choice. humanity succeeds because we are not all retarded.

red button: some people die, but I live SELFISH

blue button: everyone lives if we all press this COOPERATIVE

daily reminder that humanity is cooperative and selfish individuals are parasites, we love them but fuck they're cancer sometimes

60-70% of people on twitter. This does not represent in any shape or form the whole globe. You are the delusional one if you think most people on the planet have this hivemind of togetherness as human race.
>>
>>221038631
it is commonly accepted fact that twitter consists exclusively of 3rd worlders racebaiting each other. 60-70% being the co-operativeness estimate of the lowest low morally is optimistic if anything t. eri

The woodchipper analogy isn't valid. The correct analogous scenario is:

This woodchipper is not turned on. If more than 50% walk into the woodchipper to press the button, it's disabled and nobody dies. If more than 50% stay outside and press the button to turn it on, they turn it on and blend the people who went in to disable it.

and the correct move is still to simply not get into the fucking woodchipper.

because there are retard sympathizers in this thread. some of it is bait, some of it is probably anons whose moms are retarded and they know it.

>>221036987
Going by your argument, it would be peak ethics to convince, and where necessary, beat people into pressing just one button globally. Flooding a building with fentanyl gas and clicking a button for them would be morally acceptable, you twat.
>>
>>221038265
>People can and will vote on their conscience, just remember that
then they can face the consequences. if you're too much of a pussy to not step into the fucking woodchipper because some other hypothetical retard might get mulched then it's your problem.

Red

>>221038265
>you need 100% people voting red for nobody to die
you don't get it fundamentally. red voters see it as your own personal responsibility to not needlessly risk your own life over something as stupid as this. if you die it's because you pressed the blue button.

blue buttoners think that not even one single idiot can be allowed to face the consequences of their own actions and it is somehow everyone's moral duty to shield people too stupid to not crawl into a woodchipper
>>
>>221037157
Ok go save the millions of people doing dumb shit right now thats going to eventually kill them. Just sell your house sell everything and devote the rest of your life to saving their lives. Your life doesn't matter, you virtuous pawn.

why don't you go dedicate your life to banning motorcycles, alcohol and cigarettes?

>>221038841
The correct move is to not turn the woodchipper on when people might be inside. You psychopath
>>
>>221038961
I'm not getting into the woodchipper jusr because you might be stupid enough to be in there. If you die that's because you crawled into the woodchipper. Which should be obvious but somehow isn't to the oversocialized retards dominating western society
>>
>>221038961
It would be very morally correct to turn the woodchipper on if there were politicians inside.
>>
>>221038887
this is a strange reaction to someone else wanting to be good. you could ask yourself why YOU don't think millions of people are worth saving? do you not want to be saved if you needed it? we're all in this together, this isn't a fucking competition we all just want to live

I push red. Liars and idiots push blue.

I didn't put you into the woodchipper. Don't blame others for your own incompetence.

This stupid mindgame seems to split people between those who believe in personal responsibility (red) and those who believe in collective responsibility (blue). I don't care what you choose to do, have some spine and take care of yourself.
>>
>>221039091
>personal responsibility (red)
choosing red is killing people for you own selfish survival, don't delude yourself that it has anything to do with responsibility. only blue lets everyone live. sociopaths pick red. you live in a society, you're the freak here
>>
>>221038992
>just risk your own life to save retards please bro please
If you have the audacity to demand this from me, then you shouldn't be shocked when I demand you throw your life away to save others first. Lead by example.

Psychotic freak turning on the woodchipper. You want to kill people. Just admit it
>>
>>221039210
>just risk your own life
I get that it's probably a waste of my time to try to explain this to you. you are choosing the only option where people will die guaranteed. you're a retard. it's not audacious to expect cooperation since you are only alive because of it. your whole existence has been helped by others. you did nothing alone. you selfish cunt. medicare is us helping you are stupid
>>
>>221039348
I think there's something pretty ironic about picking the red option knowing that people will die because of your choice and claiming self responsibility. Being responsible would be picking blue because nobody dies, it's the gayest version of the prisoners dilemma.

i'm not going to lose sleep over you if you climb into the woodchipper. just don't climb into the woodchipper. the negatives of climbing into a woodchipper are quite obvious. just don't climb into the woodchipper.

if you want to see a society of red pressers, look at india, subsaharan africa, central america
if your argument is that india, the congo, and central america are superior societies to the west, then sure, i think you're retarded but atleast you're ideologically consistent, but if you are going to we wuz about being a roman emperor and talk about SAVING EVROPA, then you're a hypocrite and dont understand anything about a high trust society

It's a private vote m8. If you push blue you're basically saying that over half the population (assuming it's all adults) needs to have someone make their decisions for them and can't figure out that there's no drawback to red.
>>
>>221037621
>I would say b) is a little more achievable in this hypothetical perfect scenario
It is not the same thing you have to convince people of, albeit. Convincing someone to "vote red so you survive no matter what" is easier than convincing someone of "Vote blue and have a significant chance of dying"
>>
>>221012710
>would you risk dying to give retards a higher chance of survival
No, so red
If everyone chooses red everyone survives
If you choose blue you're either incredibly stupid or desperate to save the incredibly stupid, and I'm not dying with you

the blue buttoners go from "all life is precious; we have to save everyone" to "we should kill certain people for fun" really fast, don't they?
>>
kill all bluers
>>
>>221031995
Because it introduces risk which does not exist in case of red. Blue is objectively a dumb choice and the only sensible reason for choosing it is being worried some of your family or friends are idiots who can't take a moment to think it through.
>>
Normally I'd choose red, because I don't want to unnecessarily risk death for retards, but my wife is a bit of a dummy and in confusion she might pick blue, so ultimately I'd choose blue.
>>
>>221021135
'Humbleness' and underestimating your own knowledge are vices, they are not positive qualities possesed by intelligent people. Why do retards always need to cope by claiming that their stupidity is a sign of intelligence?
>>
the blue button argument seems to be predicated on the assumption that some number of other people are definitely pressing the blue button. so my question is: who are these people?
>>
>>221048956
Pushing blue is cuck behaviour, simple as.

And even if you're worried your family will go blue, your solidarity with them isn't going to do shit when you are 1 person out of billions. There is zero rational reason to pick blue.
