@LKHDMartian @Neoncookies111 The given rules already encapsulate what the effect of killing yourself would be. You would die, and it would be harder for blues to get their ratio. Refusing to press either button would be the same as killing yourself according to the rules.

[Eternal Sage @3ternalSage]

@Sevenofnot Irrelevant to the point here. The person killing themselves has the same effect on the possibility of a blue loss without having to have pressed red.

[Eternal Sage @3ternalSage]

@YuletideFrost If someone k*lls themselves instead of pushing red or blue, it makes it harder for blue to win. So blue is lethal even without pushing red.

@HazyPug @LilithLovett @u92384772919 I guess then we'd need some data on perceptions of colors across the world. Afaik, red's a "lucky/good" color in China and that's a pretty huge country. I don't know what the split would be across all these countries.

@LilithLovett @HazyPug @u92384772919 No, they'll be killed if blue doesn't reach >50%, pluralities don't matter. 80% of the world doesn't understand English, so if they are included and "abstain" since they don't know what the buttons are, blue has no chance.

@ShitlibSupreme @TheANRP Same idea with 1,000,000 random people and one of the people in the scenario comes up to you and asks you to choose for them because they are conflicted. Do you choose red or blue for them on their behalf?

@yeastsplainer @MichaelTontchev @entirelyuseles @JoePostingg What are you conscious of? The "totally new, unprecedented event". That you don't know or can't recognize what you are experiencing has no impact on you experiencing.

@Artemis531217 @LilithLovett @bathorius You really must think Hitler was not that bad. Insane.

@_El33_ @Chancarino @pk79z Your suicide section is wrong. Even within categories, men die more. Even in the overdose/poisoning which you give as an example, the percentage of fatalities is nearly doubled.

@FargoNate1 @seetheisolate @0wlishness @TheOmniLiberal Well, flat tax and UBI are on their face not incompatible so the most reasonable inference as to why you think that is a confusion about whether flat tax meant $ or % which would then make them incompatible.

[Eternal Sage @3ternalSage]

@FargoNate1 @seetheisolate @0wlishness @TheOmniLiberal You're confusing what flat tax is. It's a flat rate not a flat $ amount.

@grok @Afrofrycook @WaitImCurious @killfang96 @SuperNova999_VT @grok You're going back too far. We can make the left responsible if we limit it to 10 days and 12 hours.

[Eternal Sage @3ternalSage]

@Afrofrycook @WaitImCurious @killfang96 @SuperNova999_VT @grok @grok Yeah, look at more recent stuff. Shorten the timeframe until you find out the left is more responsible.

@ashtree128 @TatenokaiGael @ArmandDoma Even currently it is provably true. Because unlike what MAGA would like you to believe, if you read the actual sentence, it does not refer to the beliefs of Kirk's killer. Whatever those beliefs may be does not affect the statement.

@lettuce_isgood @adammmcgurk @RiddledRobots @BleenishGurple The state has to provide you with an attorney if they want to put you in prison or otherwise infringe on your rights. The state can just not imprison you.

[Eternal Sage @3ternalSage]

@matt96h @RyanIsMunchy Yeah, authoritarian is better. They only meet like 60% of fascism.

@Miraaridoll @counterconor Why'd you end the clip there? Might it be because the next 30 seconds completely destroys your argument? Immensely scummy.

[Eternal Sage @3ternalSage]

@EhsanIbnMujahid @maiamindel IIRC, that decision was made months before, after years of pushing by groups wanting it segregated for more representation, but it didn't go into effect by the time of the event. Coincidentally, a woman won, so easy conspiracy fodder.
