Actually this just refers to the color of their fur. I'd say that a blonde white man and a white read head are the same color, just their hair has a different color.

Oh, I'm gonna make sure you die on that hill!
First, by building you a lovely house on that hill and a nearby Denny's...
Sounds nice, go on!

To be fair, until you can see both sides of each horse, that technically doesn’t disprove it
Doesn’t “color” (no ‘s’) imply they can’t be more than one? Or.. is this theorem further supported? Both of these horses are all the same color.
Actually a quite interesting article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_horses_are_the_same_color
From that link:
Assume that n horses always are the same color.
... I mean.... yes, the logic follows... if you... make and hold that assumption... which is ostensibly what you are trying to prove.
This is otherwise known as circular reasoning.
Apparently this arose basically as a joke, a way of illustrating that you actually have to prove the induction is valid every step of the way, instead of just asserting it.
It was stated as a lemma, which in particular allowed the author to "prove" that Alexander the Great did not exist, and he had an infinite number of limbs.[4]
Talk about burying the lede! 😄
I did do this proof by induction back in the day, but now looking at the article I am clueless.
I'm not even convinced that horses are real.
They’re what the government uses to spy on the Amish.
Why can't they just use birds like for everyone else?
Amish are hidden in forests, it's hard for birds to see.
True. They look too similar to giraffes
Why is there a picture of an empty field?
I assume John Cena is standing there and we just can't see him
All horses are monkeys
Maybe author of the sentence was looking at horses in space and wikipedia is completly wrong.
But the reasoning given doesnt apply exclusively to horses. Suppose we follow the same chain that gets us "all horses are the same color", but replace "horses" with "colors", we would end up with the statement that all colors are the same color. Thus, this is not a counterexample, because black and brown are the same color.
Brilliancy!
Mammals only make brown, but we do a lot with it.
