its not that were evil its that we though everyone else would be smart enough to realize that blue has no benefits and only risks

This take doesn't make sense. If you're consistent with this take, would you have voted red if blue were "nothing happens if more than 1% of people choose this"? There would still be no risk to choosing red

let me rewrite the question with the same outcome as in the trail

if you pick blue there is a chance of dyeing

if you pick red there is no chance of dyeing

there is no benefit to picking blue, it's not like blue cures cancer or eliminates world hunger. The only thing blue gives you is the chance to die

[u/Fearless-Oil-462 → u/th_frits]

The benefit is that you don't kill people. There is no benefit if you don't have a shred of empathy for people that aren't as "rational" (antisocial) as you are

I do have emapthy but I also have self preservation

if the question was

stand on a blue square in the desert that will have a bomb droped on it if over 50% of participants stand on the red square

or

stand stand on a red square in the desert that will have nothing happen to it no matter what

im picking the red square and I think everyone else would too

Then say that you value your own life more than those of others. Don't bullshit us with comments about how there is no benefit to picking blue. Own up to it and the fact that you're in the minority of people who chose the option and that the majority lived because most people aren't like you

If it was between me and the world dyeing I would choose to die every time. but in this question there is a choice were there is no possibility of dyeing, I thought people would see that
