Ok, so upstream says that about the issue

"so this bug happens because GTK messes up when CSS properties are set to inherit from the parent
by default, the color property is set to inherit
so you can say GtkMenuitem { color: green } and all the widgets inside the menuitem will be green (labels, symolbic icons and so on)
 without having to set it explicitly for all of them
 color is the most important of the inherit-by-default properties (the font properties are like that, too, but they usually never change)
 so the way to work around this is to explicitly assign a color to labels
 or to labels inside menuitems"
