    The picture below is in no way made by someone who knows arabic:

    • the caption is written from left to right , but unlike other normal languages, arabic is written from right to left .

    • the letters are disconnected, in arabic letters are connected depending on their position

    • the caption gives off google translator vibes.

    Anyway, I wouldn’t doubt if this was really the case

      How can you tell it’s written left to right? There’s equal space on both sides

        Because what’s written only makes sense (sort of) from left to right. It says ننتظر الآن والسماح الغرب لتدمير نفسه… but backwards with every letter separated, which is typical of computers which haven’t been configured for arabic script
