We at Twitchy usually try to stick to the blue-checkmark crowd when it comes to scorching hot takes, but once in awhile someone comes up with a take so “China Syndrome” hot that we have to air it out before it melts through the Earth’s core.
We’re always glad to learn about history, so it was an eye-opener to learn from @british_woman that whites invented guns because they’re the most cowardly and weak race. And as if any more proof was needed, she included a still shot from “Black Panther” with nary a gun in sight.
Whites are the most cowardly & weak race. Whilst all other races were fighting using arm to arm combat or close contact spears. Whites created guns to kill people from a distance. pic.twitter.com/4KgTNZoYb7

So the more brave races fought using arm-to-arm combat or close contact spears?
This take is core of the sun hot. https://t.co/hKYAb830Ao

Wrong. Africans fought with bows and javelins, adopting firearms with the advent of that tech.
You might also want to rethink using an image from a film where some characters use high-powered energy cannons.
Lastly, Chinese invented the hand cannon and Turks popularized guns. https://t.co/1WBB62zmFE

"Historians typically recognize Chinese fire lances, which were invented in the 10th century, as the first guns". https://t.co/U1l4Ap0rkA

The first firearm was invented in China in the 10th Century.

Sorry about what happened to you, but it was the Chinese who invented what would become the "gun" about 1100AD. This was then refined by muslims who used a cannon against mongols in about 1400. Europeans merely refined what was already in use. Next….. https://t.co/852IFzAAjK

The invention of firearms is probably one of the easiest facts of history to trace. It's an area Europeans were late in the game and traded for like all the other groups who adopted it's use.
This is an early World History subject ? https://t.co/lfMrgVbIfv

Have you ever even read a history book? Gun powder was invented in China and was first used with a fire lance, an early weapon which is a precursor to the gun, also invented in China.
Also, if you wanna talk History, dont use fictional people from a fiction country as your image https://t.co/sIc6HIuqs7

This has to be a parody. 4000 years ago Europeans fought naked with spears. Then we worked out how to make and work Bronze, then Iron, then Steel. https://t.co/RlaJgYGomG

Doesn't get origin of firearms. Argues it, in fact. Doesn't get distance weapons like bow and arrow. Doesn't get the notion of creating a weapon as a tactical advantage, much like armour, tactics, etc. Has obviously never had to struggle in any conflict, so thinks it's bad to win https://t.co/hAydAEk88e
