    “Colour charge”, which has nothing to do with colors though. Its like electric charge but instead of two opposite(called posotive and negative), it hace three “colours” which obeys R+G+B=colourless(white) just lije positive+negative equal zero

      There are still opposite charges - each colour has an ‘anti’-colour. So R+R=colourless G+G=colourless etc. This is how mesons work (pairs of quarks). Baryons are triplets of quarks but there are also combined tetra- and pentaquark states also.

      You can think of anti-red as being cyan etc. but the colour theory can be more confusing than it’s worth.
