Terra I Gotta Know... Why Is Everyone Hating On Milk Cookie Now I Don't Understand

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.
