@TheBongressman @Pacifist_Elk Ignorant Children and well meaning elderly. You have selected self interest over valuing innocent life. I wonder what your views are on abortion, given your username. I’m so happy my values reflect my beliefs.

This is a fundamental misunderstanding of what Blue pressers think. For them, it doesn't matter whether or not they can safely press it. It's about ensuring everyone lives, even if they have to put their own lives on the line to do so.

Roughly it's like this right? Red button: "I don't think blue would come close to 50% in the real world" (So I can't safely press it) Blue button: "I feel confident in my fellow human to do the right thing and blue will win" (so it's safe to press blue)

@GottaLoveMutts @NotReallyABear2 Actually, the random votes between two options are 50\50, meaning the “rational thinkers” need to understand that 50% of the children and elderly voted blue. I hate to be the one to tell you this, but rational people don’t let innocents die. You’re not wrong for fearing death.

@EdwinFingleton @NotReallyABear2 People’s random votes (like your children, elderly, low IQ, etc) make blue less likely. Randomness means less likely prosocial cooperation. Rational actors would realize this and skew more red. You had a better chance when everyone thought it was only rational actors voting.

TBH, first instinct on this was press blue - it seemed like the nice thing to do & blue pushers would be nice people. Then I thought about it for more than a minute and realized red is the correct answer. The longer this goes, the more I reject blue. They are not nice at all.

You are asked a hypothetical question that reveals your moral character. Pushing red button announces to the world that you are cowardly. Pushing blue shows you are heroic. There are no other consequences because it is a hypothetical. You can just lie. It’s a hypothetical.

@TheBongressman @Pacifist_Elk Nope, it was just a blue button to them. Blue buttons that millions of toddlers and infants will press out of child ignorance, guaranteed. Reds won’t push blue because they don’t want to die Blues won’t push red because they don’t want innocents to die

@theramblingfool "it's a gamble/risk/suicide button" Is it really a gamble if you know you're going to win?

And I don’t think it is actually a good metaphor for social contract and safety net. Most people don’t get into trouble and need help in the real world because of conscious bad decisions. It is most often a confluence of situation and bad luck, which is why society should help. You not picking the “I definitely live” button is not bad luck. It’s just stupid.

I probably should whisper this, but pressing the blue button is selfish because it requires other people to risk their lives to save yours when everyone could just push the red button and be done with it.

@TheBongressman @Pacifist_Elk Children who don’t know better will vote blue. Burning building with children and well meaning old people. Will you and 50% attempt to save them or will you stand outside because you fear death. Innocents will die unless you are brave enough.

@NotReallyABear2 And to me, if humanity came together and voted blue with me, they would be heroes to me, because putting your life in the face of danger to keep everyone alive is worthy of being called a hero in my eyes.

@NotReallyABear2 I have children whom are too young to understand the poll. If I were to vote privately and not know their answer, I would only press blue, because I don’t know what they would press. There are plenty of virtue signaling blue pressers, but there are also people who have no choice.

@BVorzsonits @autismchud @DiscardedLeaf @MachDominus You lost when you pressed red bud, that’s the point of the hypothetical. The real question is do you believe that humanity is inherently in this together or inherently selfish. In both the original poll and Mr Beast’s poll, blue won. Humanity wins, you lost.

@autismchud @DiscardedLeaf @MachDominus Red doesn't lose, only blue can. For red the outcome of the vote doesn't matter. They already got the most that you can win: to live. For blue the outcome is very important, if they have the majority, they manage to get what red gets. If they don't, they lose their very lives.

@selfmaxxer @Deviknyte “Commit suicide” And blue wins not just the original poll but Mr Beasts as well. You lost the popular vote, and in turn, everyone lives, because apes together strong, even in the face of death, humility always wins.

@GreatValueArhat I had to do an aptitude test for my trade job as an electrician, saying how gravity would act, how water acts, what direction a gear would spin if one spun in some other direction further down the line. That is exactly how hiring processes should go.

@danny_bttrmn @Bunneehe @Metal_Crow The act of entering the death gamble soley falls on the people who enter it. If the winning outcome is to not die, push the “not die” button. It is selfish to expect people to put themselves and others life on the line for an outcome that is guaranteed with the red button.

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?

@BratwurstMl @thechaosledger It's really simple. I can't know what everyone pushes. I don't want to be responsible for killing anyone. Given those two things, blue is the only choice. Sorry you're having brain worms over it.

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.
