Red is good blue is bad.

It's a penguin walking into a situation thinking everything's cool then dipping out when they realize it's not

Red is rad, blue is bad.

Blue was the original, Awkward Penguin. Then someone introduced the flipped red version for opposite pov jokes. And then the half and half version popped up and sort of took over.
