    American colors are backwards for some reason. In countries around the world (that I’m familiar with, at least) blue is the conservative color and red is the liberal/left color. Orange tends to be social democrat, I think, but that might be my Canada bias.

    This is consistent across the Commonwealth at the very least, but I think I’ve noticed the pattern met in other European countries as well.

      TIL honestly, I never thought about it much, but it’s interesting we’re reverse of the norm.
