most controversial hot take: brown is dark red and all of you are denying the fact that language and cultural impact affect the way you see the world.

Explained in this hit classic by @TechConnectify

A four panel meme showing light blue and blue in their Russian names (goluboi and sinii) with a drawn character eating cereal saying “English would never have separate words for a light and dark version of the same color”

In the third panel the colors “pink” and “red” labeled as that with the drawn character spitting out their cereal in disbelief.

@ErikUden @TechConnectify I always thought of brown as dark orange cause that was always how I got brown in most color selectors in like paint or gimp.

@ErikUden hot take of my professor is that brown does not exist, if there isn't a color to reference next to it. Because it's dark red.
