nah it was the opposite actually (or at least that was the story given at the time). the main reason why it got changed was because it backfired HORRIFICALLY and was used as fuel for abuse by the ppl who didnt realize they were being made fun of. an attempt was made

at least in the years since folks have been able to do interesting write-ups and think-pieces about the concept of Becoming White as body horror

(and tbh? its a funnier punchline than peachy.)
