That's, IMO, an example of fruit racism - all the oranges are orange, but apples come in various colors. So we're comparing an ethnically chromatic population on the orange side with a rich diversity of apple population.

The People's Movement for Fruit Equality has still to work on its main issue, because while they can argue that in most of the substantial senses apples should be equal to oranges, they still have a very hard time proving that cherries are equal to coconuts.
