I feel like I've seen this before but explained less wrong than your bot wrote it. In any case, I chose the bear over seeing more posts like this.

It's a really interesting thought experement meme.

1. If +50% of the world presses the blue button, everyone lives.
2. If +50% of the world presses the red button, the blue button pressers die.
3. If you have autism the meme triggers you.

I think it’s fun to think of metaphors like which one is which.

Like if the blue button was revealed to us as neuralink, combining all our minds to make a super AI that cures all diseases and ends all conflicts, but if not enough people do, the ones that did, die. Pretty much everyone would be like definitely gonna press the red button and not put neuralink into my brain.

If blue is presented as a unity religion and removing any conflicting cultures, it makes sense socially to fight for yours and others personal freedoms, and press the red button.

If you think like Jesus, the obvious choice is to pick the blue button, but he also says you have to choose to be with Jesus, and everyone who doesn’t is forsaken, which makes it more like the red button.

The founding of America was essentially the red button because we were like fuck all these Europeans, I’m getting the hell out of here and gonna go try again. I don’t care what happens to Europe..

But the people in Europe are also kind of like the red button, because they’re like I don’t care if those people go out and die. I’m not leaving to go help them because we’re fine the way we are now.

It really is a tough thought experiment and I’m proud of the Internet for coming up with it.
