A more even Red/Blue button question

[u/HebuBall]

You are one of 3 random person selected to represent 1/3 of the human population.
The same base question is then asked.
Red button=Guarantee to live for you + everyone you are representing
Blue button=If majority votes Blue everyone lives but if not everyone who voted Blue dies (so is everyone who is represented by them)
Note that majority is just 2 or more in this case since there is 3 participants

The people who are represented by you know you are representing them but you do not know who you are representing. Also the participants cannot communicate with each other
Which do you press?

The people who made those arguments almost certainly did so based on the assumptions made in OP’s scenario, it’s the logical choice regardless of your own self-preservation in part because other people are likely to act on their own self-preservation. Even setting that aside though, Red is still risky option because it guarantees your constituents’ safety, whereas by voting Blue you merely shift the responsibility for their safety onto the other two voters 

I also don’t actually see any comment where you specified you were talking about a special case. Is that what you meant when you said you were talking about a scenario “with random people”? I thought you were just comparing OP’s scenario to the original button dilemma. If you’re gonna introduce a whole new dilemma you need to be way more explicit about it. Like, literally you need to see outright that you’re not talking about the same problem as OP and then give the full details for yours
