@avlap2 @ayoub So are the subtitles wrong? Because, if we’re for some reason nitpicking the crap out of a bigot’s bigotry, the subtitles show her addressing Arab viewers and quoting “every dog gets its own”. Thereby equating Arabs to dogs, before clarifying that they’re more like rats. If the subtitles are wrong, blame that, not the original poster. And there’s something to be said for missing the forest for the trees.

avlap (avlap2@mastodon.nl)'s status on Friday, 25-Oct-2024 02:47:52 JST avlap @ayoub It doesn't help the case if don't rephrase her rightly. Strange moment, strange word, but she called those leaders 'rats'. For me as a follower, it makes it harder to reboost your posts, as I don't know if your interpretation of a situation is adequate and fully according facts.

Somehow feels appropriate that this is spoken in German.
Aral Balkan repeated this. -

The subtitles are accurate. She talks about dogs generally and only calls Sinwar specifically a rat. (I am a German native speaker.)

David Culley (davidculley@sigmoid.social)'s status on Saturday, 26-Oct-2024 05:25:19 JST David Culley @ayoub For context: That TV channel ”Welt“ (German for ”world“) is a right-wing anti-immigrant propaganda channel, and part of the disgusting Axel Springer press. It’s not much different from Fox News in the US. That channel plays a huge role in pushing Germany back to fascism.
