When I select dark theme, I can't read anything [message #1838583]

This might need to be a bug report, but I am not sure.
I am having an issue with the dark theme, and all of the text in the preferences menu (and a drop down things) is completely black and unreadable; the actual IDE and console is fine. I have tried restarting multiple times, but it hasn't worked. I am using the C++ IDE 2020-12 4.18.0, and it was just installed so nothing was added, except for a test project containing only a hello world script as a test. If anyone knows how to fix this, I will be very thankful.

Yes, I tried that locally and it's kind of a disaster of black on black so a bug report needs to be opened.
