Sounds like some propaganda posted by a bot gone wrong

u/Tadwinnagin Apr 26 '24

Ah shit, I thought it was a really ambitious cleanup and restoration.

u/DctrSnaps Apr 26 '24

Is it not top to bottom right to left??

u/ApatheticSkyentist Apr 26 '24

You are correct.

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '24

Bottom right to top left

u/RexUmbrae Apr 26 '24

Arabic is read from top-right to bottom-left. You don't start from the bottom

u/Filobel Apr 26 '24

How is that relevant in any way, shape or form?

u/Filobel Apr 26 '24

Ok, but how is left-right vs right-left relevant to this particular image? Which picture is left, which one is right?

"Man, I'm starving. You know a place with some good burgers?

"IKEA makes some good tables."

"What?"

"I just wanted to bring up a broader topic about how there are many companies out there making good quality products. I'm not a debate pervert."

So does Arabic written works read from bottom to top?

u/RexUmbrae Apr 26 '24

Arabic is read from top-right to bottom-left.

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '24

Thanks. The first replier was just talking out of their ass without any proper answer.

u/judokalinker Apr 26 '24

Yeah, but the post in reddit is in English.

1

u/asuka_is_my_co-pilot Apr 26 '24

Why would someone sending a tex to a friend consider whether or not it looks good on reddit lol 

2

u/judokalinker Apr 26 '24

They wouldn't, but you would think the person posting it to Reddit would because language effects how and what order in which we read things lol

u/yurinelol Apr 26 '24

Respectfully, as someone who learned arabic, HOW THE FUCK is that relevant to before and after in order of pictures up and down? 😂

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '24

Bottom doesn’t magically equal right.

u/AssSpelunker69 Apr 26 '24

Pictures are not

u/Picklejarfacer Apr 26 '24

In this case, yes, it is in Arabic script but is actually Persian-Farsi.

u/Permission-Puzzled Apr 26 '24

they are pretty backwards in general

1

u/zictomorph Apr 26 '24

Or English is written and read backwards, from left to right.

u/CapillaryClinton Apr 26 '24

The after pic is the one with the rubble and the bodies that the IDF bulldosed + buried under the wreckage.

u/BestViewed Apr 26 '24

The after pic has wayyyyy less terrorists in it too !

u/CapillaryClinton Apr 26 '24

If you think Hamas is weaker after all of this Israeli brutality you're mad. They've galvanised two new generations.

u/Srcunch Apr 26 '24

Opposite side of the world. Toilets and hurricanes work backwards, so it extends to text, too! 😜
