"June 2020, King tweeted that statues, murals, and stained glass windows depicting a white Jesus should be removed. “I think the statues of the white European they claim is Jesus should also come down,” he tweeted. “They are a form of white supremacy”
Lol but this dude is right. The image of this Jesus guy will be commercialized by whatever dominating power uses the religion to keep ideological control over it’s people. In the west, the elite need Jesus to be white so the exploited working classes (who believe in that silly shit) will more easily comply, relate to, and identify with it’s existence. It’s not coincidental that Christianity is one of the cornerstones of conservatism.
In reality, there is absolutely nothing significant about the history of Christianity and it’s Jewish origins in the philosophical and theological sense normally considered by those who find it meaningful. That these two religions (along with islam its brother) have rose to such prominence and remain in the world today is a testiment to how confused the modern world still is.
But anyway the dude who said that comment is most likely just the idiot on the other side of the argument. No doubt he too believes there is some significance to Christianity, and that the fact that… omg… Jesus was a black dude maybe… means black folks got somethin special bout em.
Lol the black is the new Jew; when the man’s got u down, team up with God and fight back!
(and all this nonsense because of property conflict, wealth disparity, and class division)
