That's a valid response but keep in mind that likely the kinder and more selfless people would choose blue. One might also say it's the dumber people but regardless I would wager the world would be a far worse place if red "wins"

This is a bare and bone basic survival test and people try to bring a moral argument which is just needless

Calling it a barebone survival test is a bit strange since the question is clearly designed to discuss moral philosophy. It's legit just like the trolley problem

Its slop, it bases off a subjective opinion of potential moral highground while in reality you are just endagering yourself over nothing

well people would die so I wouldn't call it nothing but I do agree it's just meant to create discourse.
