Additional comments

I had an eye surgery so squinting makes me nauseous, I don't recall JS lint logs being so hard to read though

This is just a plugin and does not affect the output of ESLint, and ESLint itself also doesn't control this color. It's your terminal settings that determine which color is used for what type of output.

My guess is that your terminal outputs errors in this dark red for some reason, because ESLint is crashing and reporting the error you mentioned in:
