Notice that blue people just elaborate on the original premise to reveal just how many people would press blue, extrapolating the obvious consequences for others, for the world, etc. And red people keep changing the question to completely different, dumber scenarios.

A train is coming down a track. Everyone on Earth has the choice to either tie themselves to the track, or not. If more than 50% of people choose to tie themselves to the track, the train turns around and doesn't run them over. Yes or no - do you tie yourself to the track?

“If everyone just presses red . . .” Everyone will not just If your strategy relies on “If everyone would just..." then you do not have a strategy Everyone is not going to ‘just’. At not time in the history of the universe has everyone just. and they're not going to start now.

@MeatyouAU @josh_j_h101 @1brad_ass @MatMilbury @johnpalmer You know people will choose blue, and you are actively choosing red to save yourself even though you know doing so will result in the killing of others. That is killing. Blue at >50% guarantees everyone lives. Red at any % above 50 gauruntees people die, likely a large number.

- If all humans are rational, everyone picks red. - But we know many humans are not rational - Therefore, red means 100% survival, but greater chance non-rational humans die - Blue increases chance all humans live, including non-rational ones So it just comes down to if you think it’s good for non-rational humans to exist.

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?

@MeatyouAU @josh_j_h101 @1brad_ass @MatMilbury @johnpalmer And the people who pick blue die directly at the hands of the people that pick red. The mindset of "red is already the winner" is the only reason that you are voting like this which is basically what the initial person that you replied to was stating is red's response.

@owe31491 @josh_j_h101 @1brad_ass @MatMilbury @johnpalmer No it's not, we know that other rational people will choose red, we know some people will choose blue, its statistically impossible that nobody picks blue, but we don't find obligation in having those who couldn't save themselves

@1brad_ass @MatMilbury @johnpalmer My reasoning for red god honest is that pressing blue adds to the death toll and is a selfish action disguised as morality while expecting others to risk their lives to save me after i just willingly drank poison Not drinking poison does not make me responsible for those that did

@0HTANISZN @raphy10k @Pitching_rebel It could eventually, it's just not there yet less than two months in. The major issues with this game are really only issues that the very top percentage of the community have to deal with. There have been a couple games that weren't enjoyable for even an average player.

@JERZNetwork Thank you for having some common sense. Most of the issues that plague this game only affect the small portion of the community that consistently are playing on Legend online. MLB the Show 18 was far worse overall. It's just recency bias.

@MatthewLeeRosen So you want to change the rules of the game that have been around over 100 years because you can't wrap your head around it?

In this instance, less than 0.5% of the ball has actually touched zone. It does't seem justifiable to reverse the umpire's call. The ABS system calculates inches & surface data. I think the rules should be adjusted, so that 25% of the ball must be in the zone for a strike.
Matthew Lee Rosen@MatthewLeeRosen

Why is this a strike?

I’m way late… But this is some pretty fun baseball IQ from Drew Gilbert in center. He caught the ball as low as *physically possible* to try and get the runner to leave a hair early (then he unleashed a throw that didn’t need a bounce LOL)

@jake_da_snake_2 @fuzzyfromyt Sure it’s insanely difficult. But so is getting the double play on a regular catch using fundies you’ve learned your entire life. One of the two actually increases your odds of getting the double play

@blumenfeld Tanking is never going to go away and is only a true issue in a lottery system where the same team could be the worst team every year and not get the top pick. Tanking will exist no matter what model you put out. It will just take place between fringe playoff teams which is worse

jeter’s WAR is unethically sourced. had he moved to third to let a-rod play SS, he would have had less (probably), and the yankees would have won more games (probably)

@RobertStock6 Only fully automated ABS will truly rid of us this arrogance and these low pitches out of the zone being called strikes.

Maybe I’m too woke: But I didn’t like Jeff designating “Chrissy you’ll go first” to have her torch snuffed, when her and Coach were were voted out as EQUALS and likely because of Coach. Yet, she has to be the second instead of third juror; and 13th instead of 12th place. #Survivor50
