I think most of the people who pick blue would be empathic, loving people that are just kind of bad at game theory.
I don't think I want to live in a world in which they all died out.
On the other hand, maybe a world where everyone who is bad at game theory is dead is a better world to live in, regardless of how nice or empathetic they are.
Literally suicidal empathy. Although the numbers would change drastically if it was real, it's easy to virtue signal in hypotheticals.
There’s no bad outcome for choosing red. The empathetic option is to convince everyone to vote red and that choosing blue is dumb.

So the blue side would also include the people who are good at game theory...
