The wind called the north wind blows to the south. Kind of the same thing
as current flow, isn't it?

The same thing with magnets, the compass has a marked needle that points north, but is is a "north seeking magnet," it is a south pole.

The thing with "the flow of electricity" is that the only physical thing moving down there is moving against the direction of all of the arrows in all of the semiconductors.
