Blackwashing
so uhmm. Y'all are confusing as fuck like y'all are mad at white washing like when a canon black character turns into white y'all crazy hating on it and then black washing y'all are okay with it!?

Op has a point. Why are you mad? If black washing for fun ok then white washing for fun is ok too. It applies one way another. You guys know white washing is a bad thing.
