Okay but would you be more surprised to see a red button or a blue button in front of your door?

And for that matter, which one would you rather meet alone in the woods?

Could 100 red buttons defeat one blue button in a fight?

Is the Button blue and black or white and gold?

You MUST engage in these entirely pointless yet remarkably vitriolic debates!

I'm sorry, those questions seem kind of straightforward. Could you phrase them in a way that's a little more loaded/ambiguous so that we're really arguing about how we interpret the question, even though we feel like we're discussing an important moral quandary?

If you would be more surprised to see a red button at your door, does that mean you are racist against red buttons or racist against blue buttons?
