    I think that you even asking the question via text is ableist to those who don't have fingers.

    Check your type privilage.

    No. That saying has been around forever. It's our modern day dirty minds that change stuff like that.... Take the NAME D**k it used to be just a name. But perverse actions of people spread fast and now it is misused...

    In modern society, just about anything with the word black in it is considered racist.

    The country is considered racist by the world and before that, white people from Europe were racist towards the rest of the world. Why so sensitive world?

    It's not. Other nursery rhymes have dark stories like Ring-Around-A-Rosie.

    Ikr, nowadays it's impossible to say "I painted my car black" without a horde of morons shouting "OMG THATS RACIST" and some of those people even get to the point of becoming extremely unnecessarily immature, they'll start saying inappropriate things and they might even start acting racist themselves "OMG U UGLY BLACK" etc.

    The baa baa black sheep thing was probably written before false racism was such an epidemic, and the person who wrote it had no intentions of being racist, so tl;dr, it isn't.
