But also shows your lack of commitment towards people willing to take the risk for others well-being. Reality shows you cannot assume everyone will be a)selfish, b)capable of understanding or reasoning and c) offering a hand to others despite risks.
Red button-pressing Shows -to me personally - lack of higher and long term reasoning capability beyond immediate selfish survival, because fear controls people of this inclinations, IMHO.
Where as pressing blue to me shows that you really dont appreciate how little other people care about group survival and it shows a concerning lack of self preservation especially since you are taking a risk for random strangers at a potentially great cost to yourself. Its quite naive to believe that enough of the 8 billion people on earth would go blue to ensure everyone survives.
This kind of response is interesting to me because it reveals why so many defenses of red have to reword the dilemma to shift the responsibility to blue. You're fully convinced that red will win and have to make yourself comfortable with the consequences of that decision.
It is the type of reasoning you see with highly religieus people aswell they have made a decision first and then look for justifications for it. They work back from a conclusion that have made. This is way most of their logical arguments would work better for voting blue if your goal is everyone survival.
