  At time of writing, this is 65 blue, 35 red.

  My instinct was to choose blue, but thinking about it, red is the safer choice with 100% survival rate.

  Am wondering if it is the phrasing. For blue it only mentions “live”, but red also mentions “dies”.

  - if > 50% of ppl choose blue pill, everyone lives

  - if not, red pills live and blue pills die

  I don’t think I’d want to live in a world populated only by people who took the red pill.
