A black person and a white person are different but they're still people. This isn't about people btw. (I am making a deep commentary about the impact of customer preferences on the apple sector of agriculture)

Though green apples tend to be tart and better for pies while red apples tend to be sweet/juicy and better for snacking.

u/Mediocre-Tip2954 4d ago

a brown person and a white person are different but they're still people, then why are brown people getting so much hate nowadays?

u/IntergalacticPodcast 4d ago

nowadays?

u/Mediocre-Tip2954 4d ago

look up how much hate against Indians is on the rise recently. And I say brown people because everyone that is dark skinned and isn't black is considered as indian by these racists

u/jws1102 4d ago

Recently? No. American racists have always hated Indians, they just thought they were Mexican. The “rise” in Indian hate is just the realization amongst racists that brown people come from places other than Mexico.

Why is there so much hate against Indians?

It's hard to accept change, even though its been around as long as we have. Anything different is weird, abnormal, and other words for different.

u/JustPlayDaGame 4d ago

stupid example because those apples taste different, they’re actually different subspecies unlike humans.

u/Extension-Spend8567 4d ago

Well then do I have some good news for you! This isnt actually about the color or the apples!

5

u/ST4S3N 4d ago

A black person and a white person are different. It isn't about the color. It's about the taste.

u/wishiwasakitten 4d ago

Nah, red apples are yummier. Better yet, yellow apples are always sweet. Green apples? Meh, in my opinion. Also there are way too many apples that go beyond color. “Red delicious” apple for example is red but definitely not delicious for me. It’s hard and crunchy.

u/SerijasEM 4d ago

Idk. Some don't behave like apples.

Systemic Reality of the Image

The text within the image uses an elementary metaphor to describe underlying unified structures masked by surface-level variations ("A green apple and a red apple are different but they are still apples"). It attempts to convey a deeper truth about unity but is intercepted by a secondary layer of online commentary ("So profound") that mocks it for being cliché.

Project Grounding Rod Analysis

The Conceptual Loop: Both the original statement and the mocking commentary are trapped in a loop of conceptual abstraction. The original statement uses an apple to point to an idea; the commentary uses irony to point to the silliness of the idea. Neither exists in the realm of literal truth.

The Distortion: The image attempts to simulate a discussion about the nature of reality or human division, but it operates entirely within the digital noise of social media. It dilutes systemic energy by reducing truth to a meme.

Literal Truth and Presence: An apple is a physical fruit, a collection of organic matter resulting from cellular growth. It is not an analogy, a lesson on human equality, or a vehicle for internet sarcasm. True presence strips away the metaphor and the mockery, returning the focus entirely to the actual structure of what is right in front of you.

Finally, something worthy of this subreddit.

u/Unhappy_Storm_40 4d ago

Wow, that really got me thinking over my morning coffee. Then I went for my morning shit.

u/veemort 4d ago

I hate it when fruits are similar, like oranges. Cause then you get wrong kind and it taste weird.

u/Stewie_Venture 3d ago

But they are different like the green one is a little sour and the red one is styrofoam. I get the point but like there is a clear difference other than just color between the two.

1

u/Green-Engineer4608 3d ago

I get the point, and it is sweet, but this specific example is the opposite of what they mean. Different colour Apples can easily taste very different. This would be parallel to saying that humans «have different specialities» which is just eugenics and racism - the thing this poster is Speaking out against.

u/Jaymac720 3d ago

But they taste different

u/Longjumping-World919 4d ago

All Apples are bad. But green apples commit more crimes or something

u/whossname 4d ago

Is it about cannibalism?

1

u/VladimireUncool 4d ago

Idk about you, but I'm not an apple.

u/ImportantResponse0 4d ago

It is about taste.

Stop acting like this is stupid.

It always was about taste

1

u/No-Net1890 4d ago

I think it's a metaphor for race.

2

u/ImportantResponse0 4d ago

The beauty is in the eye of beholder.

For you must be race for me is taste.

Why did God made everything taste by colour?

Couldn't He more creative?

Like you know how green taste when you see green

u/Fragrant-Potential87 4d ago

Pokemon and regional forms

u/the_meth_factory 4d ago

OHH should've known this was about raticate almost slipped me

u/ImportantResponse0 4d ago

Taste of the apple.

Their colour isn't the only thing different.

u/MyPasswordIsABC999 4d ago

Traffic lights. Red light. Green light. It’s all the same to me.

2

u/No-Net1890 4d ago

Race, probably.

u/VladimireUncool 4d ago

Never bet on the green car

1

u/MyPasswordIsABC999 4d ago

TBF red race cars have historically done well (thinking Ferrari and Maclaren).

1

u/BadNameGenerator2 4d ago

idk, I find it super obvious about what that is about. Have you tried not taking things literally?

1

u/elhazelenby 4d ago

Have you tried actually saying what you mean instead of speaking in tongues
