The Illusion of Colour: What You See Isn’t What You Get
What if colour isn’t real?
What if every sunrise you’ve admired, every stop sign you’ve obeyed, every brilliant blue sky you’ve stood in awe of—wasn’t colour at all?
Not the way we think it is.
Because here’s the truth they never taught you:
Colour is not something objects have.
Colour is something your mind creates.
You’re not seeing colour.
You’re seeing reflected light—and your brain is painting in the rest.
🌈 Light Is Not What You Think
Light isn’t just brightness.
It’s a spectrum of invisible information—vibrations moving at different speeds.
🔴 Long wavelengths = Red
🟡 Medium wavelengths = Yellow & Green
🔵 Short wavelengths = Blue & Violet
Your eyes have three types of cones. Each one picks up different frequencies of light.
But here’s the kicker:
Cones don’t see colour.
They transmit data.
Your brain takes that data—and constructs the image. It adds meaning.
🟥 Red becomes danger.
🟦 Blue becomes calm.
🟩 Green becomes go.
Colour isn’t seen.
It’s interpreted.
🍎 Nothing Is Actually Red
Look at that red apple on the counter.
It’s not red.
That apple is absorbing every other wavelength of visible light—except red. That one frequency bounces off and hits your retina.
Your brain catches the signal and says, “Ah, that’s red.”
But the truth?
Red doesn’t exist in the apple.
It only exists in you.
🧠 Colour Is a Lie That Feels Like Truth
There’s no pigment in the sky that makes it blue.
There’s no colour inside the can of paint.
There are only:
🌈 Wavelengths
💡 Reflections
🧠 Interpretations
We don’t see objects.
We see the light they reject.
👓 A Quick Word on Colour Blindness
Colour blindness isn’t about broken eyes—it’s about altered perception.
People with colour blindness aren’t missing colours…
They’re missing specific cones that process certain wavelengths.
What’s wild?
👓 Some special glasses don’t add colour—they filter light differently so the brain can process what was always there.
That means:
🔍 The colours were never missing.
🧠 The brain just couldn’t interpret them… until now.
It’s living proof:
Colour isn’t real—it’s perception.
Change the input… and the world literally looks different.
🌀 If Colour Is an Illusion… What Else Is?
This isn’t just about colour.
It’s about perception.
If something as basic and universal as color is an illusion crafted by the brain…
🔍 What else are we not seeing clearly?
🔍 What other “truths” are nothing more than mental projections?
We trust our senses like sacred instruments.
But they’re not reality.
They’re filters.
And before the world ever hits your awareness—it’s already been edited.
💻 Hijacking the Spectrum
Here’s the part no one talks about:
They know colour is perception.
They know light is influence.
And they’ve learned how to hijack both.
Your devices don’t just display images—they manipulate light frequencies.
💡 Blue Light – Short-wave, high-energy light designed to stimulate alertness—but overexposure wrecks your melatonin, disrupts sleep, and hijacks your circadian rhythm.
⚡ LED Flicker – Most LED lights rapidly flicker on and off. You can’t see the flicker—but your nervous system feels it. It causes eyestrain, headaches, and subtle neurological stress.
📱 Phone Screen Pulses – Your phone is constantly flashing. Not just visually—electromagnetically. Face-scanning tech, ambient sensors, and screen refresh cycles all pulse at frequencies your conscious mind can’t detect…
…but your biology can.
They’ve weaponized light.
And because we can’t see it, we never question it.
🛡️ What You Can Do
This isn’t fear—it’s awareness.
Here’s how to take back control:
✅ Use Blue Light Filters – Especially at night. Apps like f.lux or built-in night modes reduce the disruptive frequencies.
✅ Choose Flicker-Free Lighting – Look for high-quality LEDs rated “flicker-free” or go old-school with warm incandescents.
✅ Limit Direct Screen Time Before Bed – Your brain can’t wind down if it’s being blasted with synthetic daylight.
✅ Go Outside – Natural sunlight calibrates your internal clock and restores real light balance to your system.
The more synthetic light we absorb, the more disconnected we become from natural rhythms.
And that’s the whole game:
Keep you disconnected.
Distracted.
And dependent.
But once you understand the illusion—and how it’s being manipulated…
You can opt out of it completely.
👁️🗨️ You Don’t See the World as It Is—You See It as You’ve Been Conditioned
You’ve trusted your eyes your entire life.
But now you know:
👁️ You don’t see the world as it is.
🧠 You see the world as your brain has been trained to perceive it.
And if colour was an illusion you never questioned…
How many more illusions are still hiding in plain sight?
🧩 Final Thought
You weren’t crazy.
You weren’t blind.
You just weren’t told the whole story.
But now?
Now you’ve seen behind the veil.
And once you see through the illusion of colour…
You start seeing through all of them.
We don’t just expose lies—we decode perception itself. Features like this aren’t backed by sponsors, brands, or political parties. They’re funded by people like you. If this made you question reality, help us keep peeling back the layers. Every share, hoodie, or donation fuels the next awakening.
