Here's what blue voters don't understand. If EVERY American voted blue.. that's 100% of America... blue would STILL lose globally and America would be wiped out. Get off your moral high horse and accept reality.

Reality: everyone who voted blue is dead and your vote can't change anything. Voting blue just increases the number of victims. The game itself is conditional genocide already. The polls showed that your loved ones who voted blue already died. It takes being an adult to face that. The option with the most empathy and wisdom is in understanding the Schelling Point is max red, not max blue. It takes being an adult to face taking a large risk and actually paying the consequences of losing. Red is also a longer term game against the game: a) deciding to survive to hold accountable those who caused the game to exist b) survive and make it a personal mission to make sure no one ever has to play a game like that

A grocery store CEO was fired for treating employees "too well" - so 25,000 workers emptied shelves across 71 stores and refused to work until the board rehired him Sales dropped 95% in six weeks

The pattern played out like this: - Duh Red is the obvious choice. Nobody dies if everyone pushes red. There's not reason to push blue. - Blue button pusher think they have a bullet proof rebuttal... Some confused or irrational people will push blue. Therefore the knee-jerk red reaction is naive and the true enlightened position is that that you must push blue. Unfortunately, that turns out to be the naive position. Consider the following...

The hubris of blue pressers to assume more than half of all humans on earth think the same way they do, regardless of their demographics or culture. The audacity of red pressers to decide a non-zero percentage of deaths is an acceptable alternative to giving up their autonomy.
