How did the black AC wires ever get away from being ground (or a pseudo-equivalent) given that everyone else uses black for ground?

Please. Don’t work with electricity. Black and red wires are hot. White is neutral and GREEN is ground.

Touch White, you'll be alright.
Touch Black, it'll set you back.
I, for one, welcome our new Electrical Overlords /.

It seems silly that wire colors depend on where the wires were put in, and what they were put in.
Machine, consumer electronics, and walls all have different color codes.
