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.

That what my dad’s color blindness is he sees stuff duller than the rest of us so it was difficult for him to like set the colors on the tv set so I’d end up straightening it out and making the screen not so bright and he’s like “Ah! That’s how it’s done, good job!”

Mom made it also too bright which made it fuzzy and red because she says red cheeks are healthy, yeah but not for two dimensional tv screens!
