Terra I gotta know... why is everyone hating on Milk Cookie now I don't understand
Tbh from what I’ve been told and what I’ve seen Milk Cookie was hated from the start and suddenly that hate is making waves again.
There’s the misinterpretation of Milk being based on a Christian Crusader, when in reality he’s based on a Cleric from DND. However that hasn’t stopped people from continuing to use it as a basis to hate him. They see the use of crosses on his outfit as offensive and will censor them out.
There’s the fact he’s shipped Purple Yam and/or the fact the two are treated as a kind of dynamic. People rushed to the conclusion that Milk and Yam are “White and Black-coded” characters and that Milk was a colonizer meant to glorify whites while Yam portrays blacks as aggressive “thugs.” Which is just about the biggest reach you can think of. Milk Cookie’s been accused of being a racist, a white supremacist character, and even a straight up depiction of a n*zi.
And more recently people have begun to slam milk cookie and ONLY milk cookie for the events on Pinapple Island where he and Sour dug holes despite Mango’s pleas. They think that this is an unforgivable act and that Ananas was too easy on him. And while I DO think it was a little OOC of Milk, nobody is bashing Sour for encouraging it, and milk wasn’t even doing so to be malicious. He was just a little too excited if anything, and in the end still saved Mango and Pinapplemur from the cave in.
People might try to argue but just looking at the Milk Cookie Tag you can see that these are the top three ways the fandom trashes him. I swear out of all the Cookie Run characters, Milk Cookie is the MOST bastardized and vilified simply for being white colored and having crosses on his design. It’s seriously so fucking stupid and is based on people’s own prejudices rather than actual fact.

Milk Cookie isn't a crusader: I don't know how the fuck ya'll looked at Milk's cross and think "Oh yeah he's definitely a crusader!" but ya'll are so fucking stupid.
White Choco isn't a canon lesbian: You can headcanon her as a lesbian but she isn't a canon one. If you read her story at all, her fans might me lesbians i'm just saying-
Purple Yam is NOT a racist stereotype and Milk isn't his so called "savior": This is coming from a POC gal myself, ya'll did Yam fucking dirty. HE'S TRAUMATIZED YA FUCKING ASSHOLES THERE'S A REASON WHY HE'S ANGRY PEOPLE COPE IN DIFFERENT WAYS-
And not but last least
LET PEOPLE HEADCANON WHATEVER THEY WANT WITH EACH COOKIE RUN CHARACTER IF DEVSISTERS SAID ITS ALRIGHT THEN ITS ALRIGHT. STOP ATTACKING PEOPLE FOR A HEADCANON...
Alright i'm done now...b y e
Don’t you EVER listen to what negative people want to tell you. I know a lot of us have heard “You’re hurting the trans community” or “You make the LGBTQ+ community look like a joke.” We exist, and have existed for thousands of years, just like the rest of the LGBT community. We are now able to put our genders into terms, and thats an awesome thing! Whether neogenders existed or not, cishets would still find a way to pick at the LGBTQ+ community. YOU are NOT the problem. People who are not willing to see past each others differences are the problem. Use as many pronouns as you want. Collect as many genders as you want. Label your sexuality as whatever you want it to be. At the end of the day, you aren’t hurting anyone, and you are making your own form of happiness. You are valid, loved, and so, so amazing <3

trans people who make fun of other trans people for the sake of cis approval make me so mad cause although yes, not having to worry about cishet approval is a form of privilege, we didn't gain our current rights by "acting normal". we didn't gain allies by obeying to cisnormativity. do you seriously think people like trump give a fuck about whether you're a ""crazy sjw kitty/kittyself trender"" or not? transphobia isn't gonna suddenly stop existing if trans people stop expressing ourselves the way we want. neopronouns, xenogenders, trendercore [the aesthetic] and gender non conformity isn't what causes transphobia. bigotry and lack of education is. bringing down other trans people & forcing your insecurities and internalised transphobia on them isn't helping, you're literally just tearing our community apart.
so no, Tyler ⚔️ • 17 • truscum • exclusionist • BAB you're not achieving anything. the world has MUCH bigger problems than me, a 14 year old neurodivergent trans guy identifying as raingender and using rain/rains/rainself pronouns to help me understand how i experience my gender
