Yes, I used to question color perception
I also had the same question for a long time, but whenever I tried explaining it to anybody they would think I was crazy😂. I don't know if I couldn't explain myself or maybe they didn't have mind theory😂
Vsauce talks about every single question that I’ve asked that no one could answer
good, same with me.
this is why i love him he answered it all

“We can all agree that red is warm and blue is cold.” But what if my warm *is* different from your warm?
Ever thought if someone sees in a way and another one sees UPSIDE DOWN? I bet no one thought of that
Yeah I was thinking of this as well. Like we all describe red as warm because we are used to it being the colour of hot things, such as fire. But if fire was blue and ice was red, people would say blue is a hot colour and red is a cold colour.
Blue is warmer than red

if it helps my purple is quite purple (similar to blue and pink) and my red is very red-like.
This was the exact same thought I've been having for a long time since my childhood only to discover that the question cannot be answered even by vsauce

When I was in 5th grade I asked my teacher this same question of is your red the same as mine? And if you throw a ball 100mph, and I drive a motorcycle 100mph right next to it, would I be able to reach out and grab it and not feel any force from the ball? She told me I need to stop wondering about such nonsense. It made me sad and I’ll never forget it.
Your teacher wasn't qualified enough to answer your questions

Vsauce: “apes don’t ask questions.”
We're Vsauce, you're talking about Michael.
@LolHow I was about to say-
I would argue that ANY animal that experiences curiousity is asking questions in its head
ikr
Its not the question about knowing smth. But question about permission.
”We are all alone in our minds” is the most depressing thing to hear when you’re alone in the middle of the night
Its literally 11pm and I'm watching vsauce and questioning my own reality right now
But what you refer to as "alone" is based on previous experiences, and based on the fact you think it is possible not to be "alone" (because if it is possible to be alone, it is also possible to not be alone). If you think it's possible not to be "alone" it means you've experienced not being "alone" before, even though, at that time, you were still "alone in your mind", so it's a contradiction. Most of the times you start feeling this way, or feeling that nothing makes sense, it is a flawed statement, because it contradicts true experiences you had in the past, and I keep seeing people fall in this trap over and over. For example, you may think "everything I have and will ever done is predestined to be this way, because that's how matter works. If I were to create a 100% perfect computer simulation of the Big Bang, everything would repeat itself and the necessary information for the whole universe would already be contained and determined in the Big Bang. Therefore I have no free will, because I am just matter reacting to other matter". The last sentence is a flawed statement. Just because you dwelved deeper into how things work, it doesn't mean you don't have "free will". In the past, you have made choices, by which you defined "free will" to yourself. Now you claim that your own definition of "free will" doesn't exist to you even though you've experienced it and defined it in the past.

It's more than Highly Probable that Chocolate tastes either the same or damn-near the same to all humans who eat it. I think colour is the same. Everyone sees either the exact same red, or a damn-close shade of the same red we all see.
True, but we don’t know
I think that everyone sees color somewhat the same because If people did have different perceptions of colors then colors that contrast would be different to each person. So things like the videos that use black and white contrast to trick your vision wouldn’t work on some people because in the case that we don’t see all colors the same, someone would get two colors that don’t contrast and therefore the visual effect wouldn’t work.
It's a good point. But I think it is possible we see different colors anyway, keeping the same contrast between what I call red and green and what you call red and green. Take the negatives for example, red's negative is light blue, and green's negative is purple. The contrast between red and green could be the same as light blue and purple and it wouldn't make too much of a difference. Maybe it's not always the negative but the color spectrum could be a bit shifted, and contrast would allow to distinguish as different colors anyway
no you didn't get the brain's color interpretation point. let's say there is a strawberry which is red to you and a leaf which is green. in a b&w tv you will see them same contrast if their color value are same. you can not recognise the difference. and other person who sees red as your green also will see it like that. in a colored screen every pixel has a value of red, green and blue in the range of 0 to 255. for a strawberry it is 255 for red value and zero for others. for a leaf it is 255 for green and 0 for others. in a b&w screen the values will be same for strawberry and leaf so you can not distinguish them. to recognise the difference leaf or strawberry must have a different value. e.g. 200 for red and 255 for leaf and so in a b&w screen you will see a contrast difference.

too much yellow makes my eyes hurt
GoldenMiru I'd say not, because of how some colors like blue can calm us down, and red makes us more agressive. Surely it's unique to the colour and not the perception...
False. I do not have a favourite colour, thus disproving your hypothesis.
You know, when I'm 10 years old, I asked my teacher this question once, she said "don't ask something unnecessary".
