Everybody has great thoughts sometimes, things that they think are wonderful analogies that will reframe peoples perception of a topic. Sometimes that great idea for an analogy you think you've had actually pans out and works really well to start a conversation and maybe change a mind or two, and sometimes that idea is... well, sometimes your idea is a stinker like this.
Close your eyes and imagine a black version of Kyle Rittenhouse crossing state lines to go hunting and then getting away with murdering two white men. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/esfJeRtryQ

As it turns out a lot of people closed their eyes and imagined this scenario... and they liked what they saw.
Oh my gosh right now i'm imagining black rittenhouse blowing away a pedophile, a wife beater and a black dude swinging a skateboard and it is AAHH--MAZE--IIING.

I would salute him and thank him for his service so long as he was in the same circumstance as Kyle.

Godspeed, black Kyle Rittenhouse!
Others took the opportunity to point out that the author seems to have just randomly plucked a random picture of a black man with a gun off of the internet without actually figuring out who it was he was using for his picture.
Did you really pick a photo of an attorney for the NRA for this lol https://t.co/9gfNGugHC2

Most people I know would be perfectly fine with @MrColionNoir tapping people that tried to kill him during a riot. https://t.co/Od4tSYsWUG

Dude randomly posts pic of an armed black man to make an anti-gun point. The man in the picture is a lawyer for the NRA. You can’t make this shit up. https://t.co/qOOi9shPn4

Sir, did you just Google "black man with AR" (or something similar) for that photo of @MrColionNoir ? 🤨 Because you don't seem to know who he is. pic.twitter.com/dzt05RWTqr

But for the most part everybody just wanted to let the guy know he's a lunkhead without getting fancy about it.
Close your eyes and imagine yourself not being an intellectually dishonest douchebag, sir... https://t.co/9OezyQM1Tr

Challenge: Impossible.
So you’re upset one white guy killed two other white guys? So much so that you now want to imagine if a black guy killed two white guys?

Done. Way to go, black Kyle!

Just a heck of a good job done, Mr. Arizona. We have to assume that this sounded better in your head, which honestly just doesn't say much for what's going on in your head. Outstanding.
