@Sargon_of_Akkad But it's not a punishment. For people who believe diversity is strength, migrant camps are a blessing.
For too long, leftists have been voting for open borders, but the bounty has been enjoyed by others.
English
It should really go without saying that punitive partisan policies that target sections of the electorate for voting in the "wrong" way is distinctly un-British and, frankly, shameful.
Threatening sections of the electorate with punishment, in the form of placing dangerous migrant camps in their midst, might seem like a clever strategy on the surface, but it attacks something foundational concealed beneath our politics and is deeply unwise.
We are a nation and, as Edmund Burke argued, have shared national interests that go beyond our provincial concerns. These interests go beyond the mere material.
The unspoken assumption of Britain is that, despite any political divides, we are British and therefore will treat one another in a manner that recognises the fundamental legitimacy of the other person and their claim to a decent life. Regardless of disputes, they ought to be able to go about their day comfortably and safe in the knowledge that this is their country and they belong to it.
This is the psychic fabric that itself has been damaged by mass immigration: bringing in millions of people from countries who do not have this special attitude is what brings about the intangible feeling of unease that causes "white flight".
It's why the country feels less safe, whether or not it actually is, and why people wish to live among people like themselves. The world becomes predictable and you can feel at your ease that tomorrow will be like today, and today will be like yesterday.
Carving up areas of the country into ideological chunks that can be dealt a cruel hand because of their voting record is the hard edge of politics that we really must avoid. Ideology turns countrymen into enemies, brother against brother, over ephermeral abstractions that have devastating and permanent consequences.
The ideological politics of the Blair era is what brought these problems to our doors in the first place. It was understood by them that "rubbing the right's nose in diversity" was a punishment, to be weaponised against their enemies. The logical conclusion of this was Zack Polanski's building a society without the right entirely.
The Green-voting areas targeted by Reform are well-to-do white areas of the country, who have not yet had to live with the consequences of their politics. This is the axel around which the emotional impact of the policy hinges, and reveals the horror of what Reform plan to do. Yes, they're stupid, but they are going to be like babes in the woods in the face of it.
Reform have taken up the destructive politics of ideology from the other direction, and if we look at what it has brought into existence without the mystifying lens of political ideology, it seems monstrous.
In concrete terms, what we are seeing is a Muslim man who is threatening British men, women, and children with the rapes and murders caused by unvetted illegals co-religionists in order to gain political power.
Why should we think he would stop there? Such behaviour ought not to be rewarded. This kind of ideological politics is completely alien to British life, and very foreign way of approaching the political dispensation of the country.
It is a direct attack on the psychic fabric of the nation and renders us into two opposed and irreconcilable camps, where the human feeling that bound us together is severed. It also solidifies the control that ideology has over both sides: once one is attacked by the other, the victim will feel obliged to respond in kind.
We must rise above this kind of politics before it destroys the precious metaphysical inheritence of the nation and forever drags us down into a place from which we cannot escape.

@pinkladies_uk Half these suspects don't look as if they even know what day it is. Jeez, they all know how to take up resources from the British taxpayer though don't they!
English
@GBNEWS Why is it 'will'. We have a Home Office that decides whether or not to give out visas and we have, in theory, a Border Force. There is no inevitability except that which Gov decides.

They quietly admitted this. Britain's population to swell by another 1.7 million people in the next 8 years.

'We need immigration to pay the pensions!'

@DenisDaly If you're talking about the incidences self reported to Tell Mama it is hardly the same. Most complaints by students on campuses amount to 'not having a prayer space' rather than some all out war cry of death.
English
All prejudiced attacks are very bad. Anti semite attacks are bad. However contrast UK, & Starmer's reaction to attacks on 2 Jewish people, compared to his total ignoring 6,000 anti muslim attacks in 2025. That's right, 6,000.

@rfcwwide @FondOfBeetles But we do live in a world of blue buttoners, we have welfare, we have charity, people do favours for each other. It's kind of nice.
English
@FondOfBeetles Blue won't win in real life, not a chance.
Red will win with 90 to 98%
English
Do any reds change their vote if they would be marked as “red”, should blues win?
Emma Hilton@FondOfBeetles
Reds are really annoyed that every single poll shows blues are gonna be fine, huh? How long does it keep repeating before they re-examine their priors?
English
picking red ensures your short-term survival, this is true
however, the type of person who picks red, are overwhelmingly (but not exclusively) low trust, spiritually-third world troggs who would actively make society worse if they were in charge.
Savvy ( ˶ˆ꒳ˆ˵ )@MadamSavvy
The red/blue post going around i feel like is a watered down version of the original. Idk why it was pushed by the botspam accounts. Anyone who picks blue belongs in a padded room. In the current state of the copypasta, there is no reason to pick blue. Instead, anyone who picks blue is looking to create a problem where none exists so they can feel good about their “sacrifice” later. Sound familiar, doesnt it?
English
@yurddlc2 At least some people will push the wrong button by mistake or some other reason. Yes, we need people who look out for others as well as themselves.
English
@StefanMolyneux People who can't see the colours, people who can't reach the button, people who are too sick. Yes, it's about empathy and looking out for others. Also, you never know when you might next need a favour.
English
This is actually a test of basic empathy and intelligence.
Most people in the world are too dumb or uninformed to understand probability or percentages.
You are also including babies, toddlers, children and people with autism, learning disabilities, dementia and brain damage...

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
@selfmaxxer Because you don't live in a world where you make all of your own food and resources. You live dependent on others who work with you for mutual benefit.
English
If the blue threshhold was 20%, I'd choose red.
If it was 10%, I'd choose red.
If it was 1%, I'd choose red.
If it took 1000 blue votes, I'd choose red.
You should never press the suicide button.
You are responsible for your own life, why make anyone risk theirs for you.

@Yatoplayz They are assuming that everyone can see and push the red button, not giving a stuff about anyone who can't. And not giving any thought to future cooperation.
English
Am I high why are people saying red when picking blue saves everyone

@lunya105 You only need 49% red for them to win this game, but what about the next one and the next one and the one after that. What if the game changes and now the only option is to cooperate?
English
Am I missing something here?? It’s easier to get >50% Blue than 100% Red
Even 1% is 80 million people dead if 99% clicked red. So if the results were switched, that’s 3.5 billion people dead. Society would be in shambles and your life/the world would change drastically :(

@notsoErudite And think about the next time a problem comes up that requires cooperation, but now you know that everyone around you is selfish.
English
Since everyone was very curious my answer, my answer is obviously blue.
Gotta save the naive, the kids, the blue lovers, and the principally hope-pilled people.
You red button pickers need therapy.

@JonathanRawles That's because people live for 80 years and some have the ability to think long term.
English
Sorry, I’m a “Blue Button” pusher.
Here’s a very simple “push red” framing, and still 22% choose blue.
Mankind is not purely logical or statistical, and it’s sensible to take that into account.
English
@cloud__alter And now play round 2, where there is a different problem requiring cooperation.
English
Everyone presses blue = Everyone survives
Everyone presses red = Everyone survives
Most people press blue = Everyone survives
Most people press red = Red survives, but straight up all the blues get killed
Red is beneficial to only you, you don't even save anyone by choosing it

@ChardySPX But it is an IQ question, just that some people are thinking there is only 1 day to live and some are thinking of a lifetime.

@JinSaotome @MrBeast But alerting others to save themselves by cooperating with you is 'blue' behaviour, so you could convince them to press blue and save people who have noone to help them.
English
@MrBeast You press the red button because in either outcome you survive. You convince all your immediate family to press the red button. People who press the blue button are the types who end up on this map. They can get launched into space and be with the cosmic dust they so cherish.
