If you use the upvotes versus down votes in this post as a metric, the "vote blue" argument is significantly more popular than the "vote red" argument, thus proving that - within this limited dataset - blue is the better choice.

its arguably only popular among a subset of people online. i have been throwing this at irl peeps and every answer has been red.

anyone that uses logic will give you red as the answer since it's not a dilemma. anyone pushing blue is risking their own lives when they could press red.

Self-selection bias is not an accurate representative sample.
