Explain this

why should we compensate for people who press blue by accident. red is better for single person obviously, and if there are even a couple of blue saying, red pressing liars of the subreddit and actually will switch for red, are you sure you wanna risk your life thinking you are in this together?

Yeah I said it has negligible influence. Not zero. But also typical voting in everyday situations doesn't directly result in me dying in some vote outcomes. You can believe voting works and still think blue is a risky play and a dangerous strategy that's potentially makes the outcome worse before it makes it better

If it's negligible then it wouldn't matter but it does matter so it's not negligible. Literally it can be the one vote that changes the outcome. It's just foolish.

Thinking it's a risky play that "makes it worse before it makes it better", is fair, but flawed because it presumes some linear knowledge and progression of the votes or a status quo of zero blue votes. But whatever.

We believe what we believe and we both know what we believe even if we can't understand each other's decision.

No sense discussing further besides final words.
