i totally agree that the Egyptians were fair skinned but ur argument that "it's been clear for over 100 years" based on hieroglyphs alone isn't a super solid one. Jesus is often depicted as perfectly white & fair haired when it's obvious his heritage would be the opposite of that, so it goes to depictions of idealised imagery, much how both indians (dot not feather) and blacks today still desire to be more pale skinned and the skin bleaching market is worth lots of $$$
side note, why don't blacks look to their proper heritage of ancient history? The Nubian kingdom was, for all intents and purposes their pinnacle of civilisation. They traded with Egypt, made war on Egypt a few times and Rameses the great built the warning of Abu Simbel as a reminder of what happens to Nubians when they try to roam into upper Egypt (south egypt); that they'd be crushed.
What purpose does appropriation of one of the top 4 civilisations of all time serve? We know even the Egyptians were frauds when it comes to the claimed building of the pyramids but can't deny all of Egypt's great works and contributions. Do they not realise the very racism they wish to extinguish is only enhanced by the falsehoods of "we waz kangs?" and other imbecilic gestures
Jesus was a jew and likely had fair skin, the claim that he was dark skinned is propaganda. Obviously the depiction of him as aryan is not realistic, bit it's clearly the result of there not being any accurate description therefore the artist had to create that image based on what he knows. That is the only reason for his aryan appearance, not some deep conspiracy. The hieroglyphs on the other hand were intended to be as realistic, if slightly imbelished as possible. It is absurd to suggest that they are off by more than a shade, let alone the difference between white and black.
To make the claim that the glyphs are inaccurate you need to provide more evidence than just pulling the claim out of your ass. There is as far as I know, no evidence that Egyptians forged anything or even had the same worship of whiteness as people today.
