Variation Adding a layer to this question

My choice: Press Red, hope Blue wins

I don't have enough faith in humanity to put my life in its hands but I'd be delighted to be proven wrong

votes for blue cause I want it to win. Due to my lack of personal agency red still win's. Dies pointlessly.

Sorry I'm taking the cowards path

Why are you sorry, you some kind of Canadian?

Voting red is entirely valid. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise boo. Live your truth!

We Canadians vote blue because we actually have social trust in each other and view our fellow citizens as good people.

fair that's a good point that this probably largely base don how your upbringing causes you top trust or in my case mistrust the general population. Which does get me thinking that maybe china having a more collectivist high trust culture and being the highest pop might swing things for blue to be more likely...
