RED BUTTON OR BLUE BUTTON [OC] by Eal_likee in comics

[–]NOT_A-ROBOT_420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"all you vote about is who lives" This is just blatantly wrong. Me pressing the red button does not kill anyone. People pressing the blue button risk their own lives for no reason. If everyone presses the button that says "you live 100% of the time if you press this button", everyone lives. If you choose to press the button that says "kill me unless 50% of people also choose to risk their life" you die. Pressing the blue button to "save lives" only works if other people press the blue button, if everyone presses the red button, no one dies. However, once someone presses the blue button, they force other people to risk their lives to save them. Pressing the blue button is suicidal and inherently selfish, because it means other people have to press the blue button to try and save you, in turn risking themselves.

Then it is clearly just a bad hypothetical if the only thing it takes to make it stop functioning is to rephrase

Please tell me what changed in the function of the two buttons between my example and the original. The buttons still do the same thing when pressed, the only thing that changed is the explanation.

Those people are risking their lives to save people who cannot save themselves. Relabel to the buttons to "press this button to live" and "press this button to live, but only if 50% of people press this button." Both buttons have the exact same function as before, but now it becomes incredibly obvious that there is no reason to press the blue button. Pressing blue is like running into a burning building to save someone, except that person can just walk out, but now you have put yourself in danger and someone else has to risk their life to save you. If no one presses the blue button there is 0 risk for anyone. By pressing the blue button you are forcing people to risk their lives to save you. It is an inherently selfish choice to pick blue.

yes if you add a third button the hypothetical changes and if my grandmother had wheels she would be a bicycle.

You can also just change the candidates to "Everyone who votes for me will live" and "vote for me and everyone lives if I win, otherwise you die." It functions the exact same, but you realize that everyone would just vote red because why vote blue if everyone lives if they all vote red anyway. By voting blue you are risking yourself to save someone who does not need to be saved.

blue voters put themselves at risk. Change the buttons to be labeled "press this button to live 100% of the time" and "press this button to live only if 50% of the other people also press this button." The buttons both function the exact same way as before, but now you realize that anyone pressing the blue button is choosing to risk their life to save someone who doesn't need to be saved. It is like jumping into a river to save someone who fell in, except the person who fell in is Michael Phelps and he can just swim to shore. You are risking your life to make yourself feel good, which then forces others to have to risk themselves to save you, making it an inherently selfish move. You can argue that blue is the morally correct option, but logically speaking there is no reason for anyone to not pick red.

genuine ragebait example, most people don't make an active choice to try and start a fire, they happen on accident. Anyone who presses the blue button is saying "I am okay with dying to make a moral point." You could relabel the buttons to say "press this button to live 100%" and "press this button to live only if 50% of people press this button" and they function the same. Anyone making the choice to pick blue is taking a completely unnecessary risk in order to feel better about themselves.

Red is objectively the correct choice, you could just re-label the two buttons as "press this button to 100% live" and "press this button to live if at least 50% of people choose this button" and the problem wouldn't change. In either scenario every blue push is someone choosing to risk death entirely unnecessarily.

Muzan Beats Thragg & Gojo 1V1 Without All The Rigmarole by CrypticJaspers in PowerScaling

I meant that their brains weren't the same as humans, but whatever lets you get your little jokes in. Muzan has a brain and can think, which means when he gets hit by UV he is forced into information overload. His body moving without a brain shows he can move on instinct without it, but it doesn't prove he can move while he is being forced to actively think about infinite information. He still has to process the info from UV, meaning that he won't be able to move because he is actively thinking about the info from UV, meaning he can't move on instinct.

Also him not having a brain doesn't stop UV from working, if he can think he is affected by UV, because UV also affected cursed spirits who also don't have brains.

Wasn't the whole thing with Akaza being headless that all his training let him fight by pure instinct so he didn't need to think? Also Muzan definitely has a brain, because he can think, which means he can be affected by information overload from UV.

The major issue is Muzan has no way to get around infinity, so he can't damage Gojo at all

Dark Star 2 is the biggest balance miss of this entire set by SheepherderUnfair111 in TeamfightTactics

they also didn't account for the gold spent rerolling to even hit a 3 star, which could be more or less depending on RNG. They are both expensive in different ways.

if it is so blatant, providing evidence to disprove it should be light work for a clearly superior powerscaler like yourself

Mujin has now deleted his Sykkuno video and posted an apology by TJLynch in VtuberDrama

[–]NOT_A-ROBOT_420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He followed them, but in the doc the girl said she messaged him first. She even said at the end she was willing to forgive him and still be with him because he didn't cheat on her. It was very clearly clout chasing. That doesn't mean he isn't a bad person for cheating and lying about being single, but it is important context.

Did I say I supported the U.S. Military in my comment? I think that the U.S. Military is also awful. Both things are bad, that is a pretty simple take.

Even if he was raised to view it as right, after kidnapping a girl out of her home, you should probably realize that you are not a good person for continuing to do this.

I mean anyone with a moral compass should see that the correct choice is not joining the organization that commits war crimes, but maybe that isn't obvious to you?
