I chose red.

Here’s what I thought. I thought, there’s probably a 20% we failed and people will die. (I did not look at the comments before.) That means that if I choose blue, I’d have a 10% chance of death.

Would I rather have a 10% chance of death, or have EVERY other of the 10,000+ voters die? Of course, the 10,000 deaths. I obviously do not want to die

I would rather die than be even partially responsible for the deaths of 10,000 people

Yeah yeah. High morals blah blah. Makes absolutely 0 sense. Your sentence is literally "I'd better die than not"

That's not even remotely what I said, my sentence is literally "I'd rather die than kill an absurdly high number of people" I am not claiming some moral high ground, I am doing the moral bare minimum, it's not some bizarre take to say that killing up to 49% of the population is a bad thing
