Is this a leftist meme? That sure is a lot of words for you to have to explain such a ‘simple’ decision.

I just like to rant.

The tldr is You Push Blue Button, You Are Sheeple and Should Rethink Your View On Morality.

But see? You're already trying to shame me. So how was I wrong? :cunningpepe:

I would push the red button, not because I wanted to live guaranteed, but because I wanted to kill every idiot who pushed the blue button.

Pushing the blue button is like depriving yourself of oxygen so that everyone can breathe, but there's more than enough oxygen in the room for everyone.
It's a futile virtue signal of selflessness, when all you have to do is apply even an ounce of logic to the scenario which is "If we all press the red button, we all live" and your mind should immediately draw that conclusion within 10 seconds.

The only button I would press would be the “nuke India” button. It would be more spamming than pressing. You’d have to pry my hands off the button to get me to stop

I would put my hand on top of yours so that we could combine our strength to push the button harder.

The average Somali IQ is 68. I would absolutely expect them to not get rid of the evidence.

The only evidence they have is of getting paid, which is presumably illegal, but who cares.

It wasn't Somalians who perpetrated the fraud—they're fucking retarded—and arresting them instead of the government/NGO people who actually did the thing seems purposely designed to generate "bad optics."

None of them will be found guilty of complex financial crimes they literally dindu, and the people who did it will never be so much as questioned.

I support rounding up niggers on TV for whatever reason. Voters do not. This is a campaign ad for the other guys.

Most people would understand a lot better if there was just one button, and a choice to press or not to press, and the choice to press it would kill anyone who pressed it unless over 50% of people pressed it. The red button is a decoy anyway, so a choice to press or not press a single button (that acts like the "blue" one in the original framing) is mathematically equivalent to offering the red button plus the blue button. Yet I guarantee you due to the same human psychology present in the trolley problem that far fewer people would do it if the choice was "press the button or don't."

People would say "it's obvious you shouldn't play this game, it's a horrible game and all you can do is hurt yourself. Walk away from the game."
 
AirMail dijo:
Leftist ideology is based mainly on the urge to feel special, unique, so they will move towards the fringe where they can feel even more special.

They grow by brainwashing children and bribing the poor, not by convincing rational adults, so reasonableness is not a necessity for them.

Indeed, even people within the breadtuber/debatebro circles like Vaush have openly stated that the endgoal of Leftism is to simply continue going further Left, which means constantly changing and modifying one's stances It's a double-edged sword, since it heavily risks losing the people whose concerns had a more static endgoal.
 
George Lucas dijo:
The left has given up on trying to be the better policy party (a.k.a. the adults in charge). Their playbook is to recruit radicals who literally believe conservatives and independents are fascists who want to commit genocide against colored people and gays, and rape women.

It doesn’t matter if your party tanks the economy when you think the alternative is evil. That’s what this whole business has been about since Trump came down that escalator.

ETA: this is why California is ‘permanently’ blue despite the state imploding economically and becoming an unsafe urban shithole.

I've been seeing a lot more "Anyone who claims to be independent is secretly a conservative." and "Anyone who says they're a libertarian is just a Republican who wants to get laid." smuggies recently and I'm actually kind of spooked about it; reminds me of COVID stuff.

two generals were going to be late which was punishable by death. They realized that the punish for rebellion was the same as the one for being late, so they decided to rebel and created an uprising.​

No one on the left understands this.

I hope the complete immolation of all political goodwill built over decades is worth spiting an old retard who will leave politics forever in 2.5 years :stress:

United Arab Emirates to leave OPEC May 1, energy chief says still committed to oil price stability
The United Arab Emirates will exit OPEC on May 1, in a major blow to the cartel that coordinates production among many of the world’s largest oil producers, particularly those in the Middle East.

The shock announcement Tuesday comes after the UAE was the target of missile and drone attacks for weeks by fellow OPEC member Iran. Tehran’s attacks on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz has also severely constrained the UAE’s ability to export oil, threatening the foundation of its economy.

There's two buttons because without a second button, there wouldn't be a label. The connotation of Blue and Red is obvious. Calling someone a "Button Presser" just doesn't have say shaming magic and label power as saying someone "Pushed the Red Button" or "Red Button Pusher". That's the power of Kabbala, baby!

It also offers the unintentional benefit of hijacking the meaning of Blue Pill and Red Pill.
