If I casually say “Money is the root of all evil”, and you respond with an example of an evil deed that was committed for reasons other than money, have you:
A. Disproven me with FACTS and LOGIC
OR
B. Disputed the literal interpretation of something that was not meant literally or absolutely in the first place
Then what exactly am I to take it as? What level of argument is this? “Na ah, you can’t disagree with me, because I was just using a commin saying and don’t want people to actually take my words at face value”?
Recent world history, at least.
Not even that. Or are you one of those people blaming the Yemen civil war on white people?
Bruh, it’s a single sentence, not an in-depth examination of all geopolitics for the past 500 years.
That’s absolutely fair. But it’s single sentence that can be proven incorrect by a single example and that’s what I just did.

… it’s not, for one.
Not even that. No one said “White men are the instigator of all violence in history”.
I don’t know what meme you’ve been seeing, but no… That’s pretty much the message this meme tries to make.
You’ve taken it to absurdum.
