Ehh, idk I think that societal constructs of red come from biological underpinnings of what red ment to us in nature.
Also yes that is still a construct of the human mind.
Im just saying it predates "society" as we know it
as a colorblind man
i can speak to this i believe
i know the programming i was supposed to receive
but because of my deficiency i'm sort of immune to it
and yet i still feel similarly to most people that red is very passionate
i would say
imagine the colour of an orange but add pink to it
imagine what the colour what be, maybe you’d think something salmon but imagine that colour a little darker and sharp. imagine it would be a colour of danger
How do you describe a word thats used to describe things?
my biggest pet peeve when looking up words
You couldn’t.
Color isn’t subjective. Even people who are colorblind just have a physical issue with how their body detects/identifies light.

we only associate those things with the color red because thats what weve been programmed to
stop signs, red lights, bull luring, whatever the f***
realistically speaking its just an arrangement of light like any other color and has no symbolism beyond the ones our society has given it
Nah that’s wrong
Think about where red appears in nature. Blood
We evolved to feel the color red as a signal of danger/intensity, because where there is blood, there is danger and intensity

Our perception of color is pretty straight forward.
I guess, technically it could be different for everyone, but we have a set of eyes that work a certain way and an overwhelming majority of people who seem to agree.
light vs dark puts it all into perspective I think. Black and white aren’t technically colors, I don’t think, but we know that black is the lack of light and white corresponds.

The philosopher would then ask what the absence of light means
And then a wormhole is opened

Our hardware may be mostly the same, but our software distorts all the information coming in
Check out this illusion. The same audio plays, but depending on what image is being played, you’ll hear completely different sounds
no
now what?

Yeah, true. And then beyond that, it turns into a psychedelic melt down lol.
Well I suppose that color or at least the connotations that surround a color in a sense can be to a degree subjective.
In which case responses that are rooted in relativity still have some valor.
And I feel like the question innately is a practice in understand an individual's relative experience to the color.
the issue is- relative to what? a blind person has no reference point when it comes to color
and I'll agree that it's subjective, but IMO it's impossible to even describe your personal/subjective experience of red to a blind person

I agree.
I think his question is to get to understand the individual better not to necessarily get the best answer to what red is to someone who is blind.
Therefore the question is rooted in relativism not necessarily actually determining how to describe red to someone who is blind.
