Let’s just assume you know who you are talking about, and who you are talking to.
I get that you see some sort of “make God in your own white image, to the exclusion of everyone else”
which, for a segment of people, is a dynamic of their racism”, and yet that is a generalization. This image fits for me as do many other images.
I’ve spent the larger part of my life
trying to broaden people’s perspective.

Obviously the image you posted struck a chord with you. So what image works for you? How do you know him? Without knowing these things, it just looks divisive.
You may or may not know that Jesus’ entire ministry revolved around helping people to know God.
He was no stranger to being mocked. In fact, He was rejected, mocked and murdered for the image he projected. The problem I have with your post is that nothing has changed since his death.
