how do we know if we perceive colours the same way?
In: 19
Yeah its really interesting, the problem for colorblind people is that they cant distinguish a lot of colors from each other, but really as long as the person can distinguish all colors clearly (regardless of whether they see them differenty) you literally would have no idea that they in fact see colors differently. Even if their red appears as green to us neither would know that there is a discrepancy since both were conditioned to call that particular color as ‘red’ from childhood. And these people would have no idea what you’re talking about if you tell that there is something wrong with them since the only way to describe the color is its name basically which you both call the same way.
