@Dannyjokes didn't do his show this week and only 5 days later there is an attempt on the presidents life. Coincidence?

@NesumAbum @RealDianeYap "People will pick to die so you have to do it too, I'm the good guy"

@RealDianeYap The opposite lol
A lot of people will choose blue no matter what (by ignorance, errors, ….) : the only moral choice is to choose blue.
Everything else is literature and make up you put on your choice.
English
Blue is not “more moral”
It is not moral to deliberately put yourself in harm’s way and count on others to come save you.
Joe Reeve - 🇬🇧/acc@isnit0
Guys blue is obviously more moral. Sure, red is logical. But blue is more moral. Anyone who thinks in 2nd order effects should advocate for blue. Just like the people who created our high trust societies would. Red voters destroy our society.
English
@Ayiba_Benedict @dangelinhooo It literally did get this far by being selfish the arguments for blue are simple why do the pressers have to come up with the most retarded shit possible to defend it
English
@dangelinhooo Humanity did not get this far by being selfish. A society by people only looking out for themselves is a failed society, not everything is "woke"
English
If kids and senile people are involved, pressing red makes you a sociopath
If everyone is rational then pressing red is the logical choice
But even when kids and senile people are taken out of the equation, most people aren't rational. Press blue

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?

@Diatribe333 @SynecticSoul @nipplydia @alejandrogayol @Son_of_Mars_III Scenario determined by people actually comprehending the core concept or not 🤔
English
@SynecticSoul @D_M_0_ @nipplydia @alejandrogayol @Son_of_Mars_III The scenario is determined in part by likely consensus, and framing changes likely consensus, so framing alone fundamentally changes the scenario.
And it doesn't force you to pick either. By default you pick red and you can choose to pick blue. Just not analogous.

red is an unbelievably phenomenally disgustingly selfish decision and i do not have theory of mind for anyone who would choose it

@Robotbeat @venya818 Demand people risk their lives so you can get goodboi points award

Blue is the obvious choice because even if you vote red and it’s supposed to be private, people will still grill you afterward and throw you out the airlock if you voted red. You can see the implicit threat of violence in the quote tweets. That solves the coordination problem!

You're in a glass box, it's filling with water, you drown if it gets to the top.
Press red, door opens immediately. Put on dry trousers, get on with your day.
Press blue, the door opens if 4.2bn other people press the blue button.
But you get to claim to be a good person.
English
@nipplydia @SynecticSoul @alejandrogayol @Son_of_Mars_III Blue pressers have no object permanence, just change the wording a little and suddenly they think its a new thing
English
@SynecticSoul @alejandrogayol @Son_of_Mars_III The way it's worded, you will die if you jump off the cliff. You can interpret it as "you don't really die", but it's worded like shit. Either way, the mechanism of your own death is through your own direct action (jumping). Everyone is likely to be injured, and won't jump.
English
@lporiginalg @BuckTurgids0n Blues are retarded precisely because they think they "won" anything except huffing their own farts and endangering people awards
English
You have to admit this is a hilarious tweet. Blue has won and everyone lives but all the red pressers are coping about their high IQs or whatever while having to love the rest of their lives knowing they would cowardly condemn their fellow man to death to save their own skin.

The calculus to press red is, to put it kindly, short-sighted idiot math. It begins and ends with “what input gives me the best odds of living” with no regard for what the world you’d be living in - where everyone you can trust is dead and everyone else knows it - would look like

@dyingscribe Bad society is when people can accurately distinguish certain death from survival
English
A society of all red pushers would be insufferable and most would honestly need to die in the first place for peace
English
@TopherStoll @sopbeen @Anton81191831 "Only needs a simple majority" youre so attached to feeling a moral high ground that you'd encourage people to risk their lives for no reason
English
You can say the same of blue, if everyone chose it then there is no danger. But blue is the more rational and moral because it only needs a simple majority to guarantee everyone’s safety.
Red is only preferable to you because you care more about securing your own life than protecting a not insignificant percentage of our entire species. You are desperate to justify your self servicing cowardice as somehow the logical solution.

Blue team is trying to save blue team from the problem blue team created for blue team by doing the only thing that creates the problem for blue team.

@Anton81191831 Each red player is trying to save themselves from the problem that each other red player created by doing the only thing that created the problem that they're trying to save themselves from. Why privilege red as the default state and treat blue as the changed state?

It kinda seems like people are just copying what Black Americans say even when it doesn't make sense? "Where would you be without us" makes sense for a minority that's been in the country for 400 years, not a refugee who came in a decade ago.
Zineb Riboua@zriboua
A Syrian artist living in Berlin posted a video now trending across Germany. Germany welcomed Syrian refugees during and after the civil war and have no colonial past in Syria to atone for. What do they get in return? Resentment, a Third-Worldist rant basically about Western colonizers as eternal oppressors. The contrast with Syria itself is what makes this interesting. Syrians inside Syria today want the West. They want a peaceful Damascus, a functioning banking system, trade, integration into the global economy. The loudest anticolonial voices and movements now sit in Western capitals advocating for things their own people aren’t aligned with.

@ItsAndyRyan @GroyperHardly @waitbutwhy Blue is too much risk for little, everyone lives if they all press red anyways
English
@D_M_0_ @GroyperHardly @waitbutwhy Currently it's more than 50% Blue, so they may have chosen the best option for maximum life.
And I say that as someone who press Red.
English
@GroyperHardly @waitbutwhy Everyone knows framing is bullshit OP but still surprising to see examples like this where its basically "commit suicide: maybe or no?"

Drone warfare has reached such a level that many fighters have lost hope of escaping or resisting. For example, the final strike on the barracks is terrifying.
