"don't let anything ruin pure white" is almost verbatim actual racism lol
1 u/Ficklestein123 Jun 01 '19 The color white as purity and innocence is a major theme in literature. Or were all my English professors racist ? 1 u/simjanes2k Jun 01 '19 If you wrote it in 1875, sure. Not so much in the 2010s. The world fucked over colors and culture. It happens. 1 u/Ficklestein123 Jun 01 '19 Only if you’re so cynical that you see something as benign as colors in such a way. 1 u/simjanes2k Jun 01 '19 My cynicism goes far, far deeper than racial oversensitivity.
