Nuclear War Demographics

A nuclear war would totally change society’s demographic profile. The destruction of America’s too 20 cities would suddenly turn America into being 80% White Protestant. Europe’s demographics would revert back to 200 years ago

A social-media post makes an absurdly calm demographic prediction about nuclear war, while the video below shows increasingly dramatic nuclear explosions and destruction. The contrast between the detached demographic analysis and apocalyptic footage creates the dark, ironic punchline, making it useful as a reaction to horrifying or wildly insensitive logic. The clip is accompanied by dramatic apocalyptic music that intensifies the escalation and makes the understatement funnier.

It's a bit too loud!
