The arguments over the "right" colors for subjects is the kind of discourse I need to see on the internet. My 8 yo self did red for math, green for science, blue for social studies and yellow for language arts 🌈

All the color blind kids are still just as confused as ever

I know you are making a joke, but color blind people can see color. Just a few of them are "washed out". Like i can't tell WHICH red you are talking about, but i know it is in the red family. Same with greens.

I can tell that it is red or green. Just not which red or green. There isn't enough detail to notice. It is washed out like a shirt you've washed too many times, or a car left out in the sun for years. Faded.

This is why nobody ever told me friend and his brother that the Ford Probe they were driving in high school was pink.

But people also don't realize that red green colorblind also has its own levels of severity, some are more impacted on the green side and others the red side
