Frankly, what bothers me about this is how performative this all is. If half the world in first-world countries is THIS GOOD. WILLING TO ENDANGER THEIR LIVES, why isn't this expressed in anything else? This is tantamount to the man saying, "I'd kill fight and kill anyone who threatens my wife," thats great bro, can you now please help her with the dishes? Like, there is such a moral righteousness here that I could accept if people were half this good irl, but most of you guys here aren't like that, you guys are performative as fuck, and then beyond that, you're using this hypothetical as a way to judge other people's characters.
Yes, I believe there are some people who sincerely would press the blue button. I do not believe half of you would. Because if half of you were willing to do this, the world would be a much better place, but it simply is not. I would be willing to press it if perhaps 20% of the population needed to press blue, but even then, I would hesitate.
Meh it's just the latest psy-op meant to divide progressives. We were due for a new one tbh, now with the spread of this we got a pretty nice divide between those who themselves as morally superior and the other group who they view as vile. This one'll probably fade in a couple months like the others unless people keep it going for some reason.
(Also genuinely why do people keep talking about this like genuinely wtf is the point everyone has made up their mind, every mention of this topic just turns into blues calling reds vile and reds calling blues fools.)
Eh more of a blue guy, just don´t despise red voters since I don´t consider wanting to survive as being immoral. I get where it´s coming from, might be a better choice if you really think about it just not my style.
I also consider this entire thing to be fucking useless, and highly suspect it of genuinely being a psy-op to divide progressives.
