    Isn’t red associated with communism in the USA? It just gets more confusing.

      Yeah, but since 2000, it’s been the republican color. We were pretty over the whole communism thing at that moment in time.

        Valid. It still confuses me regularly though, because I remember “the reds” to be the enemy of the USA.

        Having said that, it’s probably true either way.
