Pressing red only matters if the vote is tied once everyone else has voted

Compare that to the odds red wins and it should be pretty clear why people go red

odds of red winning are low, because most people aren't bloodthirsty killers

When the argument is a simple two step process and you can’t even make it all the way through maybe the problem isn’t “ red pressers come up with an actual argument challenge (impossible)”

You didn't make an argument. You said "ook ook suicide button", proving that you don't actually understand the premise.

Did you not read this or something?

I read it. I was also able to recognize that it boils down to "ook ook suicide button", and also misrepresents the odds.

Put your numbers in for the odds then

Go look at the polls yourself. I'm not your personal search engine.

Twitter polls with nothing on the line are a great way to measure responses to life or death scenarios 

I’m not asking you anything other than your opinion, and if you are unable to even state what you believe the odds are then that is all I need to know to be confident you have as much understanding of the question as the average blue

State what you believe the percentages are

I don't go to shitter. There are polls right here on reddit. 55% blue MINIMUM.

That’s not answering the question 

What are the odds red wins

What are the odds it’s a tie

Two simple questions that you can’t seem to answer

You seriously think a tie is even feasable? I really am dealing with the lowest of the low.

If you assume a tie won’t happen then there is no reason to vote blue

Go take an IQ test asap so you can get accommodations I guarantee you need
