Poll question from my 12yo:
Everyone responding to this poll chooses between a blue pill or red pill.
- if > 50% of ppl choose blue pill, everyone lives
- if not, red pills live and blue pills die

They tried to make a prisoner's dilemma but the losing state is only possible through 1 of the 2 options. Of course you're an r-slur if you choose scissors in an rps game where paper is not allowed

Blue wins on Twitter but I guarantee if there was actually something at stake, even $5, people would pick red.

Its a consequence of thinking you're smarter than other people. The irony is other people vote blue thinking exactly that about you

You'd have to be actually r-slurred to cost the blue pill. If everyone chooses the red pill everyone lives. If everyone chooses the blue pill everyone lives. If some r-slurred chooses the blue pill and everyone else chooses the red pill they die. Don't be that r-slur.

This is fricking literally the fricking prisoner's dilemma. Red is the fricking objectively correct choice. It's a fricking strictly superior nash equilibrium, and if you're too dumb to see it you deserve to die, bluetard.

No, in an actual prisoner's dilemma there's an actual (personal, non-altruistic) reward for not defecting, which is fricking that both of you keeping quiet gives you less time than both of you snitching.
Here the fricking options are fricking “You won't die” and “You might die,” not really a fricking dilemma.

The options here are between guaranteeing that people die by picking red and everyone surviving if at least 50% pick blue. So I'm picking blue.

This is a really interesting question. They just pose the consequences of the choice and let you go.
There is no difference in payoff between 100% red and 100% blue. But the most rational choice depends on what your goal is.
If your goal is to live, the most rational choice is red because red cannot die. Why the frick would you pick blue? Red looks like the most rational because it's all payoff with no risk.
But if your goal is that nobody die, the most rational choice is blue because the odds are better to match 51% of the population than 100% of the population.

What does this have to do with black people, exactly? It's more to do with ignorance, and there's no shortage of ignorant wh*te people.

The justification a lot of people give here is that you have to pick Blue in order to save people stupid enough to pick blue. So, the entire premise for their awesome, self-sacrificing altruism is the assumption that there are large groups in society too stupid to pick the "I want to live" button that need saving. I read that as the kind of condescending colonial view that "of course we need to coddle BIPOCs/women/minorities, they're literally incapable of success without our hand." Hence, the racebaiting in the post.
Frankly I would rewrite the title if I could but I was hungover when it happened.
