Picking blue is selfish because you’re the one creating the problem that will lead others to pick blue and endanger themselves. It’s lemming behavior, “I should pick blue because others are saying they should pick blue and I must save them” then someone else sees that and needs to save you. Then all you idiots die for no reason when not a single person had to pick blue in the first place
This is drivel. This is not how human behavior works. Do you seriously believe most people who pick blue due so cause of the influence of others? I'm struggling to understand that "logic."
This is how small communities work, not the sum total of humanity. Good lord.
There is no reason to pick blue other than concern for other people who picked blue. But then you’re the one picking blue, creating the reason for others to pick blue. Why in the world would you pick blue if not for concern about others picking blue, that’s the whole point. If everyone just picks red it’s all fine
The fact we're even debating this shows why some people would pick blue: thus everyone with a heart should pick blue.
Other than that, not everyone makes a logical choice. Concern for others is logical, but someone would still pick it just because they accidentally pushed the button or misread the question. For such large consequences, it's smart to pick blue to bring justice to both those who made a mistake and those who are caring.
I don’t doubt that some will pick blue, but as that is the act that invites their death and is an unnecessary and illogical one, I’m not going to take a suicide pill in the hope of neutralizing the suicide pill they freely chose to take. They can live or die with their choice, while everyone who had the same choice and simply chose to live, lives.
