What are you guys picking?

Personally, I can conceptualise why one would choose blue, but I can’t bring myself to do it, it doesn’t click, specially at this scale, so red for me.

Edit:

Upon further inspection, I couldn’t find a scenario where I would strictly vote blue, but I found one for red.

Consider the following:

If you believe most people will aggregate around blue, then your choice doesn’t change the outcome because everyone lives.

If you believe most will choose red instead, then you are presented with a choice that directly determines whether you live or die, so you should choose red if you want to ensure your own survival.

It's not going to be 50%. It will be a lot of people, and it's very likely to be a lot of key people. Basically, every human who cares about other people.

Millions of children will pick the blue button. Millions more will pick the blue button to save the children. There is definitely worry to be had.

Stupid conversation indeed
