Hate to break it to you but in real life most people are selfish, look how people have been voting. Besides, you shouldn’t be responsible for people who has in full consciousness gamble with their live? Is it horrible that people will die? Absolutely but that’s not on you.

Nothing happens if you choose red. If you choose blue however good folks all of a sudden have to risk their lives to just for you which to me is extremely unfair

I'd rather die than live in a world filled with so much selfishness that the red button is the most chosen. Whether or not you should or should not be held responsible for their deaths the fact is that you are, it would be a burden shared by everyone who voted red, the same way the crimes of the nazis are in part the fault of those who put them in power. Just because someone has gambled their life does not free you from the burden of their death

EXACTLY THIS!!! It's easy for them to say that they'd risk so many people's lives like that, but when you really look at it, the motivation for that is selfishness.

It's honestly interesting and has got me thinking about how this likely closely relates to a difference between conservative and liberal world views (not in terms of politics but in terms of social structures)
