I spotted two mistakes in under five seconds, though the second mistake might have to do with the way the color of the 8 is rendered on my monitor.

Inside the Beltway that mistake is a normal part of their speech patterns, along with a little micro ‘uh’ used to begin the next word in the middle of a sentence.

Violet is a gay color.
None of the numbers are black - you racist.
Say, none of the numbers are white either (unless there was a zero lurking before the 1) - you reverse racist.
What do I win?

Well, by that logic didn't they also leave the 10, 11, 12...........? No because those are combination numbers while the zero is a single number without which no number above nine can be written using Indian Numerals.
Zero should be in there.

"Violet is a gay color. None of the numbers are black"
Actually black is represented, however both the black and violet numbers are placed LAST in the sequence.
Clearly this is a micro-aggression against both African Americans and the gay community.
And why are the trans-numbered and trans-colored numbers not shown? What if the 2 feels like it is a 9 today? And what if the blue 7 identifies as a green 4? Transphobia on display here.
Finally-Just look at the overall display-All of the numbers and colors are overwhelmed by the white background....How does that make you feel?
