my handle is chinablue but blue isn’t my favorite color… green is. The name chinablue was a crayola crayon color but it was dis-continued due to being a politically incorrect term .

You see crayola had a color called indian red and many people mistakingly thought that this was in refrence to a skin coloration of american indians .

It wasn’t of course , the color was named after the country of india .

A country very famous for its pigment colors.

Crayola decided to give in to the politically correct people and re-name indian red to another name.

They also decided to re-name another color ‘chinablue’

As it also had the name of a country

The absurdity that anyone would get upset by the name chinablue is simply well…. absurd

but the name had the word china in it so they gave it another name so nobody would ever get offended.

My handle is in reference to these examples of the over-board politically correct non-sense that governs our live now-a-days

The colors ‘prussian blue’ and ‘flesh’ are also casualties of the politically correct war

If you have an indian red crayon, flesh ,prussian blue or a chinablue crayon , hang on to it as it will probally be a collectors item one day .
