The term "black", etimologicaly speaking, is racist and should not be used. Japanese culture seems also to be racist, so not a surprise. Instead of "black companies", kindly use "evil companies" instead.

I suppose that's also why Japanese martial artists work their way toward a black belt.

I don't think this is related to what I mentioned. I'm truly surprised that this subject is not relevant to you or, treated like if I was joking. I am just saying the term has indeed the connotation of "what is black is wrong". I failed in providing an article to corroborate with my position. I will try to find something.

Black used in a bad context = THATS RACIST

Black used in a good context = THATS UNRELATED

you would think at some point cognitive dissonance would kick in but virtue signaling and victim complex high is just too addictive and rewarding
