Of course the biggest authority respector would have a problem with that!

It's ultimately a question of cynicism. Do you think the majority of people are selfish? I would say that they are, especially when their own survival is on the line. For that reason, voting blue would be suicide.

Not a fun thought experiment, Burt!

Game theory is clear on this matter, and everyone can live through this if they only had a brain.

faith in the predictable stupidity of the masses is not the worst strategy, though not to the point of risking your own life or the lives of people you would try to convince.

If I'm reading it correctly then a vote for Red guarantees survival - why would anyone vote blue?

Because they are more interested in moral grandstanding than actually saving people. If they were interested in saving people, they would tell them to vote red. But OH NO that would be selfish! And selfishness is a sin.

You’re conveniently leaving out the political aspect.

Or are we to believe the blue/red pill option is coincidence.

You're going to risk death because red is the bad guy's color?

The blue pill/red pill option is never a coincidence.
