@MillennialWoes My pool comes with a "don't dive in an kill yourself" sticker because of people like this.
That's just all of society now.

@BIMBOSATTVA_ Everybody on either side who compares this to a real-world scenario has a low IQ.
Sorry but that should be fucking obvious that real life is not button presses.

@planefag To be fair I stuck a metal key in an outlet and blew it up when I was very little, and I lived.
So I guess being American just makes you invincible anyway.
English
What makes you think that's a good outcome?
Aella@Aella_Girl
im confused by people saying the right answer is pressing red. the good outcomes are 51% of ppl press blue OR 100% of people press red. the second is obvs way less likely
English
@_TheMaverickk @DaystarEld To be fair, the question is stupid because there are several points that are vague and you need to make assumptions, and people just make different assumptions.
English
@_TheMaverickk @DaystarEld I assumed this wasn't a legal democratic vote carried out by a well-meaning human-rights respecting government,
but rather carried out by either Super-Hitler or Satan or something.
Because nobody who respects voting law would do this.
English
You should form fewer opinions about people from their responses to this. One way it works so well as a scissor to get people mad at each other is because some read "everyone" and realize it includes e.g. children, and others don't and feel like people are just virtue signaling.
Tim Urban@waitbutwhy
Everyone in the world has to take 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?
English
@CentralUnplan @DaystarEld @sporadica Most people are likely answering totally different questions. I interpreted everyone in a literal sense. Others assumed some stipulation.
I think that's at least 50% of the divide in choices.
English
@DaystarEld @sporadica To repeat myself this is just a hard problem with the initial prompt. IMO the logical read is that it *doesn't* include babies etc, you would have to state illiterate/random voters are included explicitly. But others disagree! So its just two questions out there, masked as one.
English
need the results of this asap. all of you “i choose blue!” need to realize that you did not in fact “choose blue” you actually just “said you would hypothetically choose blue, on the Internet”
Aella@Aella_Girl
You said you were skeptical cause hypothetical is different when something is actually on the line. I decided to test
English
@DaystarEld @sporadica Exactly.
Planet of 8 billion Elon Musk clones = instant red, no question
Planet with lots of toddlers and also my mom (bless her liberal heart) participating = instant blue.
English
@Staladus Because it's twitter and it's a bunch of autistic tech-bro chuds.
English
I have no idea why you would press the red button. It's 100% vs 51% the answer is clear here.
English
@Logo_Daedalus They would just gloat about killing a bunch of stupid undesirables forever
English
@MstrHardpoint @UsingLyft @SausageVendor33 I mean I suppose you could midwit-bell-curve-meme this one and say red is for the dummies and high-IQs, but he didn't say that so I wanted clarification.
He said "Red is easier for an illogical person no?" which is kind of vague.
English
@UsingLyft @94SweetGoats @SausageVendor33 This guy clearly pressed blue lmfao
“Red is the more logical”
-‘so what you’re telling me is that blue is more logical’
These people are honestly fucking idiots 😂
English
Why would anyone just not press red lmao. What would make you go there and be like “yeah I’m gonna play this crazy game and risk it all by pressing blue?” Why? Why would you do that

@nobody_b_ @CerosTV If you don't pick Simon you most likely lose.
But Light is the only one with a chance against him, but it's a gamble.
Better to have both.
Or just get Jotaro to sop time and kill Light before he can write a name, which could work.
English
@CerosTV WHAT IM FUCKING SAYING DUDE
Light yagami is the only think that can stop Simon and idk if that’ll even work because simon has come back from worse
English
Whole list is insane to me
Simon is at 2$?
The DIGGER? UNIVERSE TOSSER ?
Yamcha is 1$? That’s a steal he ruining 80% of the list
Riya Singh@riyasinghwb
You have $10. Who are you going to pick. Rest will hunt you… #anime
English
@CerosTV Wtf did Yamcha do that people are picking him?
Did I miss something in his evolution?
Also yeah, anyone who doesn't pick Simon loses.

@RealDavidDears @beagleticks For IQ curves, more male geniuses and more males on bottom. More innovators, more criminals.
This is because the reproductive strategy is different.
Females must carry pregnancy. The optimal strategy is normalcy, safety of mother and child.
Males acquire a mate, more mutation.
English
@RealDavidDears @beagleticks I remember that story.
People imagine that the triangle of the social hierarchy is males on top and females on bottom.
But it's actually males on top AND bottom and females generally in the middle.
Anyone who's familiar with sexed IQ scores knows this.
...
English
@TaigaMyBeloved @KPenguin27696 @beagleticks Also worth noting.
Men who think like this usually were hurt in some way.
If they don't open up they are called insecure fragile toxic males.
If they do open up they are mocked as crybaby weak men.
Lose-lose. All the time.
I feel for guys like this.
English
@TaigaMyBeloved @KPenguin27696 @beagleticks Agree. I don't think like this, but I get it.
Men have to put up with little slights day after day, and if we respond in a slightly aggressive tone everyone else gets scared and we get in trouble.
If others (women or men btw) are passive-aggressive 24/7, we gotta put up with it.
English
@sneedago @beagleticks This is a good point.
This is why when women get annoyed that men have fun little hobbies like playing video games or whatever, we get extremely pissed off and downright offended.
That hobby is how we de-stress after work. It's not pointless. We go crazy without it.
English
@beagleticks You disconnect from society, grab your favorite food/drink, and engage in your favorite hobby for a bit, whether that's reading, gaming, watching movies, fishing, or etc.
Then you get up the next day, thug it out, and do it all over again.
English
@originalnameM @beagleticks Yeah.
"Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water.
After enlightenment, chop wood, carry water."
Just pick up a coping mechanism like booze or cigs or whatever and roll with it.
English
@beagleticks the male experience is all about emptiness & being eternally chill. if you feel sad or like youre gonna go crazy you just ask yourself, why do you care? not like why are you sad, but why do you care that youre sad? tomorrow is another day. youll wear a t-shirt then too. its zen.
English
@exJumon @beagleticks @DiamondEyesFox True men have higher pain tolerance, and test increases confidence and bravery.
Of course that means that the most miserable of society will be low-T males who can't cope (why most homeless are men, those who couldn't cut it and turn to fent) and biofemales in a male role.

English
@beagleticks @DiamondEyesFox Because from the perspective of someone with a lot more testosterone in their blood, the male experience is the best.
While women are wrong and stupid for feeling it, I get why penis envy exists.
