@AddisonBanana @waldenpod You’re close. You’re missing one important variable and I guess I’m not doing a good job at explaining it. Simply do not enter the danger.
Red: no danger
Blue: danger
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod hitting blue will never result in the deaths of others, only potentially yourself. hitting red potentially results in the deaths of others, but never yourself.
English
ugh you just want to feel morally superior so you choose the option that saves hundreds of millions of human lives 🙄
English
@AddisonBanana @waldenpod It’s not a certain death button. It’s a maybe death button, right next to a no death button. Just press the no death button and nobody needs to worry. Pressing blue now makes you the person in danger and you’re asking me to risk my life to save you. Just come be safe on red homie
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod which can be more easily nullified or deactivated by simple majority, eliminating the possibility of death for all. rather than leaving a “certain death” threatening button primed,and hoping every single person in the world thinks the same way & 100% conforms to achieve no deaths
English
@AddisonBanana @waldenpod The point is there is no necessary threat. The blue button is the threat.
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod would think that collectively eliminating a threat would be better than allowing it to persist and gobble up any who go in for whatever reason. will never get 100% one way or the other. reds way results in deaths. a blue win no one dies.
English
@AddisonBanana @waldenpod In this scenario you would not be able to see what others do. It’s all done at the same time anonymously, just like the original question. It’s the exact same question, just different marketing
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod it’s presented as buttons. up to you how to interpret, not all will imagine it as jumping into fire. some kids might not understand or choose randomly. same for ones without all their faculties.
I’ll still use scenario- you see someone you know fall in, do you try & save them?
English
@AddisonBanana @waldenpod Because I think it’s important to teach people to think critically and fully understand the problem so they can make the best decision for themselves and not put themselves in danger to begin with
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod since blue otherwise has no affect on red win or lose, why don’t you publicly advocate for blue votes in the chance it does potentially save up to half the world, while privately picking red anyways outta self-preservation?
English
@AddisonBanana @waldenpod Here’s what you’re missing. Nobody even has to put themselves in danger
Press red = stay away from the fire
Press blue = jump in the fire and and be killed unless more than 50% of people jump in the fire (which would put it out)
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod potentially having up to half the world’s pop killed, seems pretty dangerous and puts surviving reds at risk in a post-culling low-trust highly individualistic and selfish world without any selfless or helpful or altruistic people around. easier to get a simple majority than 100%
English
@Mccoy_Labadsy Press red = stay away from the fire
Press blue = jump in the fire and and be killed unless more than 50% of people jump in the fire (which would put it out)
English
A person with a high enough IQ would realise society in general operates on community and cooperation. Kids,kind people, People who believe in goodwill and the people with "low IQ" would all probably choose blue, choosing red is strategically leaving them to die.

@rojalita25 @FondOfBeetles Blue button doesn't put the group first. It's an IQ test and you're failing it. There is no group benefit to pressing blue. If there were an outsized reward for everyone if blue won, that would be different. But it's not how the question is written.
English
@Prowl8413 If you pick blue you selfishly become a burden to society and ask others to save you. If you pick red you handle your own safety first, which everyone can do, and avoid becoming a burden for society ti have ti risk their lives to save for no reason by not entering danger
English
This is a test of selfishness and lack of care for others.
If you puck blue, you want everyone to live.
If you pick red, you dont care that people who picked blue die.
There is no other way to argue this. Statistically you cant get more than like 70% of people to agree on almost anything, so picking red, youre ok with wiping out like 30%+ of people.
Its easy to make that choice when you don't know who the 30% is. This shows a lack of empathy, and forethought, because surely you will have some family members, your mom, brother, niece, etc that pick blue, and had you known that consequence beforehand, you would have chosen different.
This sort of experiment seems benign, but its a glimpse at how the 45% or so of people actually feel about the 55% that chose correctly.
They will sell you down the river quick if they dont know you personally, but then play ignorant/stupid when the consequences hit them personally.

Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.
English
@kaileyinCA It’s very simple. No danger persists on the red button. There is only danger on blue. Red is trying to explain to blue to stop entering into unnecessary danger and then nobody even needs to be saved
English
@shunnedmorlock The thing you’re missing is that the poll doesn’t present necessary danger. It’s completely avoidable danger by not pressing blue. Red is saying don’t enter into danger for no reason
English
If 100% of people vote blue, no one dies. If 100% of people vote red, no one dies. This is true.
If 51% of people vote blue, no one dies. If 51% of people vote red, 49% of people die.
If our goal is to minimize death, it is far easier to get 51% to act in concert than 100%.

@CoryRockFF @waldenpod if a majority of reds band together they rewrite the blue button from “everyone lives” to “all blues die”. Blue is safer for everyone unless reds mess it up by being selfish and apathetic. If red wins, there’s a guarantee it kills others.
English
@SkipBaylessLVP @YZR_Fantasy Why would you advise children to push the only dangerous button?
English
@CoryRockFF @YZR_Fantasy throw them at the blue button instead
English
@CryptoGeorgist True! We need to keep the idiots alive or how else will I make money!
English
Old answer was red because I thought blue was going to lose in a landslide.
But now my answer is blue because living in a world with only red button people is a fate comparable to death.

@CosmonautMarcus Red also won every poll…because they can’t possibly lose…that’s the whole point
English
You can argue all you want but Blue Button Gigachads won the vote on every poll and Seething Red Buttoners still have to justify their cowardice

@B11778245 @DragonNoonim @terminallyOL @fellowtravelerx Red didn’t lose the pole. They can’t lose the pole. They win no matter the result. That’s the point
English
@DragonNoonim @terminallyOL @fellowtravelerx Pov, you're crying about "loosing" a pole in twitter about a red and blue button:
English
@CoryRockFF @YZR_Fantasy What happens to babies & toddlers and the disabled
English
@zxcvbnmwill @YZR_Fantasy It’s not completely different. The point of this is to breakdown the fundamental mechanics of the game. The actual game is exactly the same, just different marketing. This is why reading comprehension and critical thinking are important.
English
@CoryRockFF @YZR_Fantasy Nice job reframing the question to be completely different
English
@LeePatekar @yingzigeshou @teameffujoe It’s so hilarious but also concerning to see people not capable of connecting the dots that these are the same 2 instructions fundamentally.
English
@yingzigeshou @teameffujoe They are, you just don’t like reality.
English
This isn’t a test of morals it’s a test of reading comprehension.
English
@teameffujoe This is the fundamentally the same game, slightly reworded. It would essentially be 100% red. Like you said, reading comprehension issue
English
@RollieTV @waldenpod Not quite how combinatorial probability works. Ends don’t justify the means
English
@CoryRockFF @waldenpod The crafty wording is a trick With a little reasoning you can realize that the red button is the only dangerous option Selecting it increases the need to 100 percent votes, instead of 51 percent needed on blue to save everyone causing division and a burden to everyone not selfish
