I would like to point out that this is primarily a line used by evangelicals to obscure their very real hatred of so-called “sinners”.
In my opinion the reactions people have to memes like this are broadly symptomatic of western fragility. The people around the world who truly, really hate America (and even sometimes hate Americans) are generally the victims in this situation, rather than Americans who are the targets of a dislike which has no power structures behind it and does not affect them materially. The analogy to “anti-white racism”, while not perfect, clarifies this in my opinion. I’ve expanded on it elsewhere in this thread.
