Yeah, and the communist states are the RED states, not the free ones.
Tired of this retarded BS where the commies get away with calling States controlled by the American Right Wing RED and our politicians do nothing about it.
I know, that irks me too.
Blue = associated with tradition; makes sense to give it to conservatives.
Blue = associated with colonial America; makes sense to use that for conservatives.
Blue = traditional home team color; should go to conservatives. Not so much because conservatives should be considered America’s home team, though they should, but CONSERVatism and home team just make sense together. “Progressives” are the ones who want to change stuff, THEY should get the opfor color.
Red = traditionally associated with commies. Why on earth would you use it for conservative/freedom lovers/capitalists?
