Praying for maximal SNP and PC domination tomorrow, 100% victory for both, total strategic ap Iorwerth/Swinney victory, etc.

If I had been on those planes, 9/11 wouldn't have gone down like that. In fact it would have been far worse.

Mind you I still think that even within that scenario pressing red is justified because you can't know what everyone else will choose and applying moral weight to not putting your life in mortal peril on the chance it might save someone else is kinda Mark Wahlberg 9/11 core.

Ok, see, I think this argument does have merit, yeah. Most discussions I've seen have kinda just used the assumption that everyone is beamed understanding of the scenario regardless of prior condition and/or that within the thought experiment everyone is a rational actor but if when choosing you can be reasonably sure that there's gonna be a baby somewhere presented with two colors and no context it does make more sense to risk dying.

Ok, but, frankly, why put your life on the line to have such a low chance of saving someone who values theirs so little? Blue only saves anyone if more than fifty percent presses it, if your thinking is that "someone" will, unless you're sure that "someone" is 4 billion minus 1 people you're just adding to the bodycount at that point.

The train analogy is entirely logically equivalent, pressing red isn't "pushing someone into the tracks" because it's a non-action, you're choosing to have nothing happen to you and to do nothing to anyone else. If you choose to not jump in front of the train that's one less person that can save all the schmucks who DO jump, but you're not culpable for the death of people who chose to put themselves in harm's way for, again, no reason.

Also you doing that is what makes death more likely overall, you get that right? The only reason people have to press blue, therefore bringing the possibility of death into the scenario, is because you can't trust other people to simply not press the button that might kill them.

Ok, but if for every individual it makes more sense to pick red why wouldn't everyone pick it? If it has a 100% chance to save you and a 100% chance to save everyone if all other people vote rationally with their life on the line, why would you pick blue?
