Why the war between kangaroos and Uruguayans is viral – ElSol.com.ar – Diario de Mendoza, Argentina

For many, this may seem somewhat disconcerting and surprising: on the internet, they speculate on a war between Uruguay and the kangaroo population of Australia. What began as a joke on Twitter has become the new April meme generator on various social networks.

What is the reason?

It all started with a tweet from the @HematxylinEosin account, which published: "The population of Uruguay is 3,457,000, and in Australia alone there are 47 million kangaroos. If kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, every Uruguayan has to fight with 14 kangaroos"

The population of Uruguay is 3 457 000 inhabitants. There are only 47 million kangaroos in Australia.

This means that if the kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, every Uruguayan has to fight with 14 kangaroos.

That was the trigger. In less than a week, Internet had already done its job and thousands of people had shared the tweet and expanded the theory.

Since I've read the tweet of kangaroos and their superiority in case of invasion, I have nightmares about it. Equal wave kangaroos probably govern us better than FA. pic.twitter.com/zqp4wbZNKM

I would say that the kangaroo joke went to hell but I did not get bored, so keep going

Falopa theories to which I adhere:

Flat earth ❌
Possible invasion of Australian kangaroos in Uruguay, colonization by each Uruguayan corresponding to a fight with 14 kangaroos

I could have been born at any time in history, but I'm just alive to see how the memes of an invasion of kangaroos in Uruguay become viral.
I pay internet to see these things and I do not regret it.

Even the narrative at the origin of the joke decided to continue his theory.

The fact is that in Uruguay, there are 3.6 cows per person. This is a factor to take into account.

Well, you can train these 3-4 cows to fight at least 4-5 kangaroos
