It's pointing out how many people will ignorantly hate something just because of it's name.

That might be the narrative its going for, but I don't think its a good example.

Pointing out that people are dumb (like me) and that they dont know that English speaking countries use Non-Eastern Arabic Numerals, that might be something.

Calling that racism is just lazy and misleading.
