Can someone explain it to me? I don't get it at all, but i'm not a native speaker, and i suspect that i identify the brownies? wrong.

Brownies sounds like brown knees. If you couldn't see color (which isn't actually what colorblindness is, but we're pretending for the sake of the pun), you wouldn't see the brown, so you'd just see knees.

ah i thought those were just shadows or artifacts because of the garbage image resolution.I do have red/green colorblindness tho, which messes with brown tones too, so that didn't help too lol. Thanks to all who answered!

Also people who like to think of themselves as "not racist" sometimes say things like "I'm colorblind, I don't see race".
