NATO, The Police, every fucking imperial ass flag, rich grifters wearing blue suits. It's made me associate this color with the shittiest of ghouls. I avoid it like the plague.

But this is irrational and silly, it's just a color and hating a color because it's widely used by monstrous capitalists to lul you into a false sense of calm is silly.

Right?

    I have a blue house with a blue window. Blue is the colour of all that I wear. Blue are the streets, and all the trees are too. I have a girlfriend, and she is so blue.

    Blue are the people here that walk around. Blue like my corvette, its in and outside. Blue are the words I say and what I think

    Blue are the feelings that live inside me.

    This is a certified hood classic. smurf-cursed

    Cuba, Laos and the DPRK have blue on their flags. And some flags of the soviet republics had blue on them to. Then there some auroras that are blue

    Blue was the colour of the Eureka stockade and the 1891 strike that founded the Labor Party, the first ruling Social Democratic party in the world.

    The fact Chuds have taken over the Southern Cross is criminal.

    Blue is also the color of water, comrade. It signifies water on maps, gps displays, underground utlity maps, public infrastructure maps (at least in the US it does), and building plans. That’s just because I work with water tho.

    But before all that even, blue makes me think of swimming pools. It makes me think of cool clear water to go swimming in.

      it is time to remind comrades to not just touch grass, but to touch ocean, sea, river or pool

      the feeling of, let alone the physical concept of buoyancy is such a calming feeling. I strongly recommend everyone who is able should go for a swim every once in a while to relieve stress
