Probably true in most countries; America is weird for having the red and blue colour associations backwards

pretty much everywhere except the US the colors are reversed: blue is conservative and red is leftist. though the us doesn't really have a left, they have liberals, i think it was true for the US as well until the parties switched platforms.

And reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine by legislation. And limit the number of stations one company or person can own. And separate news divisions from the rest of the company. Ban news divisions from being required to make a profit. And pass legislation making the Internet a utility.

Tune out, speak softly, and VOTE Democrat in November.

The color choice and lack of context made me think not of Democratic blue, but of the Thin Blue Line at first. Which made me gag a little.
