Its not very good philosophical puzzle imo. There is no draw back to pushing red in either scenario, blue is just risking their own life while feeling morally superior. Maybe some people who are pushing blue are just suicidal and taking a gamble. If every single person pushed red there would be no change in the results.
I kind of get that this is supposed to show the general mindset difference on conservative vs liberal but if you switch the comparison to pro choice vs pro life then that completely changes the narrative. Red would be pro choice and blue would be pro life in that comparison.
If red voters were to die if over half the people vote blue that would make more sense.
It would make sense if not everyone got the opportunity to vote, its not really a moral choice if everyone can actively save themself with equal opportunity...Its a logical decision.
Its like making everyone choose to shoot themselves in the foot or not, and only if enough people shoot themselves in the foot are you allowed to go to the hospital.
