Biden is destroying his chances of winning and this is what he gets in return.

[-] sir_this_is_a_wendys@hexbear.net 23 points 4 months ago

things that are hamas:

  • hamas

  • student protesters

  • vague lukewarm lib civility disapproval

  • free parking signs

  • the president currently giving israel millions upon millions of dollars

what will become hamas tomorrow? nobody knows isntrael

[-] Skeleton_Erisma@hexbear.net 32 points 4 months ago

Me farting in the boss's corner office will probably become Hamas tomorrow.

[-] cmhickman358@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

Unless you can pull a fast one and claim that they are Hamas instead then you would be a brave freedom fighter

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 13 points 4 months ago

BREAKING NEWS: Israel is now Hamas?

Rabid dog bites master's hand

More like two rabid dogs (Kim please take a stick).

Funny how you don't hear many liberals whining about Biden "destroying the US' reputation" when he keeps furnishing Israel with weapons (even to the chagrin of most of Europe) and then he gets stepped on like this

[-] sir_this_is_a_wendys@hexbear.net 43 points 4 months ago

Liberals don't form independent opinions

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 37 points 4 months ago

honest question isn't this saying the opposite, that Hamas loves Biden?

[-] valveman 26 points 4 months ago

Not OP, but Hebrew uses RTL system like the Arab language.

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 24 points 4 months ago

[slaps forehead] of course, didn't even think of that because it was in English but you're absolutely right

[-] valveman 8 points 4 months ago

Well, yes, but are there Hebrew words for "Hamas" or "Biden"?

I was taught that you shouldn't translate foreign names, only if the translation serves the purpose of clarification. For example: if I said I studied at USP, you probably wouldn't get it; but if I said I studied at the São Paulo State University (USP), it would be explicit that I'm talking about a college.

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It's normal at least in other circumstances to change to another script, even if it's calling Biden "BDN" in Hebrew script or something, same as we say Putin and not Путин ("Putin" in cyrillic)

[-] valveman 8 points 4 months ago

I stand corrected. Thank you for your explanation

[-] iridaniotter@hexbear.net 17 points 4 months ago

But this is in English

[-] footfaults@hexbear.net 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I think he's weasel wording it, where he isn't directly saying Biden loves Hamas but relying on the reader to assume the transitive property of if Hamas loves Biden, Biden must love Hamas

I wish him only one and for it to kill him

About to get hit with another attack from the car flipping gun.

Cuck-ass yankoid administration.

[-] DengistDonnieDarko@hexbear.net 19 points 4 months ago

This is how Biden can still win

[-] lugal@lemmy.ml 13 points 4 months ago

He's saying that Hamas loves Biden. Syntax matters. Not that it's less wrong but still

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 17 points 4 months ago
[-] lugal@lemmy.ml 13 points 4 months ago

Good point but Hebrew isn't written in Latin letters

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

I think this might have been auto translated

[-] lugal@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It doesn't say it's translated so it's not translated by Twitter and it's not uncommon for international politicians to tweet in English. Also: auto translate knows about syntax as well

Edit: it's not even syntax. Modern Hebrew is SOV as well. No translation would keep the visual location of the words while shifting the location of the letters. RTL scripts are stored from the first to the last letter in computer. There is no reason for this to happen.

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

I forgot that the zeroth character in an RTL string is the rightmost visually. Good point.

[-] JayTwo@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

Biden the master strategist expertly walking that line to get both anti and pro Palestine genocide camps to fucking hate him for the way he's handling it.

🎶Hamas and Biden, sitting in a tree, somewhere between the river and the sea🎶

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
