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 like it because it's the rarest colour in nature. Out of the hundreds of species of wildflowers here, I'd only consider three of them to be blue. One bird out of dozens is properly blue, two if you count the bluish-grey blue heron. As a pigment it was so rare that Europeans pretty much only used it to paint Mary for centuries. Seeing natural blue is always nice.
