color me (something)

President Xi seems to be betting that China is big enough and smart enough to curb the Internet and political speech just enough to prevent dissent but not enough to choke off innovation. This is the biggest bet in the world today. And if he’s wrong (and color me dubious) we’re all going to feel it.
習近平似乎在押注中國足夠龐大和聰明,對互聯網和政治言論的限制能夠在打壓異見的同時而不扼殺創新。這是當今世界上最大的賭。如果他錯了(我對此疑慮重重),我們都會有切身的感受。




"Colour me (something)" means the same as "call me (something)", typically, "colour me stupid" or "colour me gone".


Green's Slang Dictionary has "color" (US) as "to see, present as", and the first citation is for an advertisement for a television series (I'm Dickens He's Fenster) in 1962 "Color her married".
