Only when taken out of context.
Context is: “Hey honey, the clown cancelled for little Bobby’s 4th birthday, do you want me to call the White Power Ranger to replace them?”
Makes sense still. There are several colors of Power Rangers, and they are always referred to as the [Color] Power Ranger.
Does this sound off to you?
Hey honey, the clown cancelled for little Bobby’s 4th birthday, do you want me to call the Blue Power Ranger to replace them?
To which the wife responds with “what are you? A KREE LOVER?! I fucking knew it, you thought I really believed Yon-Rogg was just a close friend at work?!”

Wasn’t the white power ranger the green power ranger first, or am I misremembering the story (it’s been a while, sorry)?
He was.
I remember only because at the time they were advertising that the green power ranger would be getting a power upgrade and I said to my older brother that I bet he would become the white power ranger (not being aware of the connotations at the time, nor anything else other than the kid’s show).
He said that wasn’t possible. How would they display the trademark white diamonds, he asked? It still boggles my mind that that was his only reasoning.
I only remember because it was the most important thing in the world to me at 6
Yeah it’s like, “Srsly, you don’t hear it?”
Only if you’re a racist piece of shit which it looks like you might be for even posing this question
