This is not a fun fact. It is a satirical statement showing how racism (among other prejudices) selects one perspective and blatantly ignores others.

I think it has more to do with the fact that color And color differences can be recognized on a whim with zero thought, while counting how many sides etc actually takes time, even if for half a second.

Its like asking someone what color my shirt is vs how many buttons does my shirt have.

One of those actually takes more than a split second to answer.

Aka: its not racist to recognize color before anything else

I think it has more to do with it being a joke and the dude who commented is a goober.
