    The US has used nukes twice, has the second largest arsenal, and was ready to pull them out in the conflicts which shaped these nations' histories. That's why I focused on the US and not, like, South Africa

    Why do offensive claims matter here anyway? It was never brought up except by you

      Okay, could you explain to me what this bizarre and clueless meme says? “Libs” want to massacre everyone living in several major countries, but will also cause them to attack everyone with nuclear weapons? Why and how could anyone take this seriously?

        The gist of the meme is that liberals are heavily propagandized and will call for the annihilation of those their propaganda marks as the enemy, and will do so at any cost up to and including nuclear exchanges.

        Wait so your main point is that the meme is hyperbolic? I mean... yeah, I guess.

        My interpretation is that liberals are so far removed from reality yet moved by their ideological positioning that they really will do the unthinkable to their ideological enemies without thinking

        It could be with nukes, other WMDs, or just plain brutality. Mutually assured destruction or even retaliation or resistance by the brutalized in general is irrelevant. Libs do not care about human consequences in general. Those on the fringe of society as defined by them suffer, but it's not important as long as their personal interests are furthered.

        Why this is serious is that it has been the cause of great human tragedy for many years now. This is a meme though, and it's more meant to express all of this that I've overexplained in a not so serious way, to those who recognize it.
