That was probably the clunkiest sentence in a goldmine of clunky, flowery sentences.

When it came to pass

When it occurred...

that I wasn't melanated

...that I'm not black

I wonder when exactly his non-blackness happened and why someone was upset with him during that event.

Honestly this is peak Redditor thesaurus abuse.

I don't have anything against big words but if you're going to reach for complex grammar and sesquipedal phrasing then at least make sure that it's actually within your grasp before you do it or you come off looking like a pretentious fool.
