It's ok, I checked myself by asking the person in my life most likely to agree with me. We've agreed the association with red vs blue politics in the US is your responsibility for making an analogy that could be easily construed that way, not ours for fitting what you said into the context of current cultural norms. Therefore in conclusion: everyone thinks you messed up with that analogy.
(side note, I might have fudged the data a little and just made up that I checked with anyone else)
