    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

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

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

          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.

            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)

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

            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.

    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🎶
