In this post, I provide a careful analysis and argument regarding the red/blue button dilemma. What's the right answer? Check it out!! fric.substack.com/p/red-or-b…

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?
42%Red
58%Blue
