okay, everyone who presses the red button survives regardless, everyone who presses the blue button dies if the blue button count is below 50%, and everyone survives if the majority press the blue button
which button do you press
Red 🔴
Blue 🔵
aaaaand, new scenario:
A third button has been added. everyone who presses the red button survives regardless, but if a majority press the red button, everyone else dies. If a majority of people press the blue button, everyone survives—except for anyone who presses the green button. Everyone who presses the green button gets a crisp 1 dollar bill
which button do you press
red 🔴
blue 🔵
green 🟢
I don't want people who voted green to die, but I had to choose blue again, since we're not told what happens if majority votes green. The first one said that everyone survives if the majority votes blue, but the second poll doesn't say the same thing about green. I'm forced to assume that this question is being asked by a evil trickster deity that is maliciously hiding the information of what happens if the majority votes green.
Knew it
i never said that
This dilemma has always confused me. Is there any reason to not pick red in the first poll? Everyone should just pick red and survive, there is no downside to picking red. The options are pick red and survive or pick blue and hope a bunch of people are sympathetic to lack of logical reasoning?
Red is the "I don't care about other people dying" option and blue is the "I'm gonna try saving as many people as I can and hope most people are doing the same" option
Yes, red is the most logical answer if you want to priorise your own survival, but for some people that's not what matters the most
but i don't understand in the first poll why people will go to blue. There is nothing to gain. No one makes people go to blue in the first place.
For me it seems that people wants to be saviors and that's why you go to blue. Why people go to blue? Am i missing something?
For your own sake and everyone's just go to red, no reason to go to blue! In the first place.
Really want to understand this!
