I feel like this particular story is just the perfect example of white women being shit on by nonwhites for the crime of enjoying wholesome things, and ultimate proof that white people are not allowed to simply be happy while living in a society with these people:
In 2015 Asian artist Mitski released a song called "Strawberry blond", while the song sounds wholesome and very cute, with lyrics about bumblebees and fields of flowers, it sadly has a deeper meaning of non-white seethe. The song is actually about mitski's experience of being rejected by a white man, and rather accepting this rejection and not expecting sex from any random white man she shows romantic interest in, Mitski blames the rejection on "eurocentric beauty standards". Ultimately, the song means "It's systematic racism that white men don't wanna fuck me"
Fast forward a few years later, white women discover the song, don't realise it's cringe deeper meaning and focus on it's cute sounding surface. They make wholesome parodies on it about various strawberry animals, most notably the strawberry cow. With lyrics like "Look at you strawberry cow, you make me go wow, I love it when you moo my name" instead of the original lyrics "look at you strawberry blond". Eventually the strawberry cow infamy takes off, and it becomes a staple in white cottagecore communities. White women are making cute drawings and craft projects of pink "strawberry" cows, singing songs, doing strawberry themed makeup looks, and all sorts of lovely things to the tune of the strawberry cow parody. It became a genuinely cute and fun pass time that highlighted women's innate love of all things cute.
Well, when non-whites found out about this cute community trend they were furious. Deeming it racist because it took away from the original meaning of the song - which was white men how dare you not fuck me. Women all over the internet enjoying strawberry cow tunes and craft projects were bombarded with hate comments about how racist and ignorant they are, and the non-whites were completely furious at the one thing they hate most: seeing white women be happy.
