I was thinking about colors recently. Obviously the link between red to the left and blue to the right is pretty set in stone (AmeriKKKan uniparty notwith$$tanding). But just the general vibe of the colors. The color blue in nature pretty much always corresponds to good stuff: the sky, water (maybe the ocean, which is bluer than most bodies of fresh water, could be argued to be more bad than good at a vibe level), blue berries (except the toxic kinds), so on. Meanwhile, red is much more mixed. Dusk, blood, and meat can be good but I think generally they are symbols of things that are not so great.
Thoughts?
I think there's a primal part of our monkey brains that equate reddish warm colours with ripeness and when a fruit is ready to eat.
I feel like if you put a red apple and a green apple in front of someone who has never seen or heard of an apple before, 8/10 will choose the red one.
but what about blue apple
Our ancestors thrived on blue rasberry
