Other than the fact the Assyrians didn’t collapse until 600 BC and it wasn’t for any of those reasons.
Of course, Assyria also didn’t exist in 2800 BC so the meme probably meant 800-600 BC for a 2800 year old tablet, but STILL, the old man yelling at clouds was wrong.

If the image is true at all, the year mentioned is about 200 years prior to Assyria even being formed. This closely coincides with one of the pre-Assyrian collapse (or massive shift) periods where the society changed a great deal.
Hence “as we know it.”
