Australia: they're playing their own game with crisp bag colours.

Kinda crazy how the concept of a Poser doesn't exist to gen z because they are all posers

this is what it really is
red: you don’t trust people, so you guarantee a worse world
blue: you trust people, with zero control if they betray you
if blue wins, you survived a gamble
if red wins, you proved why trust never stood a chance
either way: the outcome says more about us than the game itself

@RealDianeYap This actually tests your view of other people. If you think most people are good, you'll pick blue. If you think most people are evil, you'll pick red.

@JustinMacmahan @endneoliberlism @MicahNieman I think it comes down to your opinion of humanity - are we generally good or generally bad? I think the former
English
@endneoliberlism @MicahNieman I’m not the one killing people. There are 8 billion votes and I expect more than 7 billion to vote red. So I’m just choosing whether to kill myself needlessly

The majority of people pressing blue is the epitome of virtue signaling. 100% of people should just press red and guarantee survival. There’s absolutely zero reason for anyone to press blue, but these sheep think it’s the virtuous choice so they vote for it anyway

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?

@minordissent I pressed blue because I believed more than half of humans would press blue. Looks like I was right? And didnt have to kill anyone to save myself?
Feels good man

Blue voters are so full of shit on so many levels.
1. The question is not over whether you are selfless its whether you think most people are. Even the most holier than thou lib believes most people are selfish and thus would not press blue.
2. If everyone just presses red no one dies. blue adds unnecessary death.
3. They are moralizing the experiment to ask “what is the good person answer” rather than honestly reflecting on what theyd do if it really happened. I guarantee you that you put any person in that room and say “if you vote blue but most people dont, we will SHOOT YOU” that not one single person will take that risk, especially given #1.

@Anton81191831 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.
They have decided it's red team's fault

@ItsRobbAllen Us blue-choosers actually saved your ass in this scenario

New Trolley problem has arrived, only it's dumber.
Pres Red - 100% chance of living.
Blue - Non-zero chance of dying.
It has nothing to do with empathy for others unless you're stuck on suicidal empathy, which is YOUR fault, not mine.
There is ZERO logical reason for ANYONE to press blue. NONE.
vittorio@IterIntellectus
why would anyone even press blue?!?

@883303s @drbenjaminterry @IterIntellectus If more than half press blue we all live too and that seems more likely than EVERYONE pressing red

@883303s @drbenjaminterry @IterIntellectus Yeah but have you met humans? Its about what you believe the rest of the population would do. I believed more people than not would press blue, so I did too.

@theashtonblaise Well ask yourself one question
Was society a better place back then than it was today?
Cause all these millennial neo-puritan panic campaigns and reforms seem to be breaking society more than fixing it.
If rock stars can't fuck teenage groupies than the terrorist have won.

There’s a differation of power dynamics and brain development.
I’m not saying 16 year olds aren’t having sex. I’m saying a 30 year old entertaining a 16 year old is a predator.
Roger Fudgepack@RFudgepack
@theashtonblaise I was having sex with my girlfriend when I was 13. We dated for 3 years and had sex multiple times a week. Why are we acting like sex isn’t desired much sooner than 18? If it was a child I would understand the outrage

I'm quickly converging to declaring Australia a proud member of Stage 5 Suicidal Empathy. Should I add them?

#BREAKING Tony Burke says immigrants coming to Australia don’t need to “assimilate” As he has never “accepted that word” He says the “integration” of people for “who they are” is the word used for a “multicultural dialogue” People can be “who they are”

@ZackPolanski @Glinner Isn't he the guy with the swollen head from theme hospital back in the day?

@AyoCaesar You’re the retards that want to give 16 year olds the right to vote, are they adults or not?

Aside from the specifics of the allegations against Russell Brand, stuff like this is why I think we ought to have a staggered age of consent – a 16 year old having sex with someone who's 17 or 18 is very different from having sex with someone who's 30!
TMZ@TMZ
Russell Brand says he slept with a 16-year-old when he was 30. 😬 tmz.me/OhxjuOu Credit: The Megyn Kelly Show

The Shell Australia Country Chair just told the Senate committee that 6 or 7 gas companies have contributed $1 million each to fund a huge campaign against a gas export tax 🤯 and smaller companies have also contributed.
Gas companies are spending millions to ensure Australians aren't paid a fair share for the export of our gas.

@callum6052 @janninereid1 @Armed_Bear_MAGA This is why our House & Senate is filled with corrupted politicians...
Oh, they wouldn't lie!

I thought this was pretty cool. 👇😱
Can someone explain why her eyes do that? 🤔🤔🤔

Isn't that what social media is for though? I mean, would you post if you knew nobody would see it or comment? I sure wouldn't. Lol.
Some people do make a lot of money doing stupid shit tho. Especially on the Tock. That place has got some real weirdos....it was refreshing to see a video that was simple.

pra quem nunca tocou um instrumento na vida e ta pensando em tocar
NUNCA comece pelo baixo, falo por experiência própria
não dá pra tocar acústico
não dá pra tocar sozinho
vc se sente incompleto tocando
não existe música que só tem baixo
não dá pra compor
não tem acorde

Very pleased with this post of mine. It is fun, very mild, and harmless. Everyone is enjoying a cute picture and nobody is upset with me.

Betoota likens the support for a gas tax to the widespread support for post-Port Arthur firearms reforms.
I'm trying to think of another example of such a broadly supported policy... Can you?
