Steve jobs father was Syrian 🇸🇾

Medicine: Ibn Sina (Avicenna) wrote The Canon of Medicine, which served as a foundational textbook in European medical universities for centuries. Optics & Physics: Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) pioneered the modern scientific method and revolutionized the study of optics and vision.

Historically, the Arab world led global scientific advancement during the Islamic Golden Age (8th–14th centuries): Mathematics: Scholars like Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi developed algebra (al-jabr) and introduced the Hindu-Arabic numeral system and decimal concepts to the Western world.

Literature & International Recognition: Modern Arabic literature is a vibrant global field. Writers such as Hisham Matar (Pulitzer Prize winner), Tayeb Salih, Mahmoud Darwish, and Jokha Alharthi (Man Booker International Prize winner) are internationally acclaimed.

Nobel Laureates: Ahmed Zewail (Egypt)1999 Ahmed Zewail (Egypt) 2018 Moungi Bawendi (Tunisian heritage) (2023) Naguib Mahfouz (Egypt) 1998 Political/Peace Laureates: Several Arab figures have won the Nobel Peace Prize, including Anwar Sadat, Yasser Arafat, Mohamed ElBaradei, and Tawakkol Karman.

Since his lack of historical knowledge has been well covered…..as a Catholic, I’m sure he’s aware that the 3 Wise Men of Biblical lore, were Arabs…..and scholars

And algebra is literally an Arabic derived word 1550s, from Medieval Latin algebra, from Arabic "al-mukhtasar fi hisab al-jabr wa al-muqabala" ("the compendium on calculation by restoring and balancing").

💯

Shhhhh! Don't tell him about this! Veep already explored what happens when you give a really dumb guy this kind of information!!

this is great! thank u!!

And it's called algebra for a reason!

For now...Trump's just getting his magic Sharpie out...

And algebra….

They originated in India though

This one really cracked me up. Reposted 👏👏👏

But he's rich so people have to listen attentively at dinner parties and such 🤪

Uh-oh, I get the feeling a Cheeto-colored gasbag of fetid corruption is going to demand they be called "freedumb numbers" from now on....

Wait till he finds out about the Hindu-Arabic system!

There are millions of Americans who poll when asked that they "Do not want Arabic numerals taught in the American school curriculum." 🙄

Algebra, algorithms, alchemy, even alcohol all owe their names to Arabic roots.

*There are

Ofc they produce science and literature. Just because you're a worm addled luddite that cant see beyond the end of your latest conspiracy theory doesn't mean these things don't exist.

If anyone here has a MAGA friend out there. This is one more to add to the "The president is a full-on white supremacist" pile. If he wasn't, RFK would have been fired within minutes. I have a MAGA friend convinced I'm in the wrong...Can't wait to watch her twist herself into pretzels over this.

The Dead Kennedys were right about hippie fascism.

Born of Palestinian Refugee parents as well.

We feel sorry for the worm now.

brother I'm dumb, I just got what you we're asking.

The worm was dead by the time they diagnosed it. He's so rancid he couldn't even support a parasite. I feel like I should send a condolence card to the worm.

He recognizes the historical contribution of Muslims and Arabs at the end of the clip, but says post-Muslim Brotherhood (whatever and whenever this is), there is no Arabic science and literature. Which is also racist and false.

Just the concept of zero, for computers (1s and 0s) is enough if that was it alone, when it was just the beginning 😉 😀.

How many Republicans are winning the Nobel Prizes?

Every time I hear a racist say something like this it’s coming from a man who hasn’t contributed or accomplished anything noteworthy himself.

The Yemeni sufis (Arabs) popularised coffee.

Yeah, man, screw Arabic numerals. Roman numerals are better. They're wonderful, the biggest and longest of them all.

Racism cranked up to 11.

They just want prizes. They don’t want to do anything to earn them. Such weird people. They add nothing of value, yet judge others.

Incredibly racist @chrislhayes.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social

There aren't 500 million, it's closer to 4, they do win Nobel prizes and have done recently. What a shock that this rotten meat eating psycho ghoul has a theory of racial inferiority.

The very words coming out of toxic mouth....

Not like I'm defending RFKjr, but, what on earth did Steve Jobs invent? Because that was all Wozniack and other people he stole from.

I’m still seething!! Disgusting gutter racist!

What the fuck is he talking about?! None of that is even true in any way racist asshole!!!

Clearly, we could say that the guy in question’s understanding & knowledge of science, history & art are inversely proportional to his hubris.

Hard to decide who’s worse, Hegseth or RFK Jr. Knowing Trump as we do, you know heads will be rolling in 2-3 weeks.

He knows nothing.

ohhh so righton

RFK Jr. is mentally ill.

Photography was an Arab invention. RFK wouldn't be on TV spouting racist nonsense without it.

What does this have to do with Health?

Arabic numerals fucktard

Hmmmm hatred and war Sounds like trump administration

Just last year, Omar Yaghi won the Nobel prize in Chemistry (he won the Wolf prize in 2018) and Yasmeen Lari declined to accept the Wolf prize in architecture.

Nor has anyone in the Trump administration.

Yet, none of those Arabs are as idiotic as RFK Jr..

Poster child exhibiting the terrible combination of nepotism and heavy drug use. He is so fucking stupid.

He may be the self admitted world's expert at sniffing drugs off public toilet seats?

None of those cultures were Arabian.

I think most people here understand that no one person invented algebra. But everyone builds their inventions on work by others. If you had to pick one person to honour for inventing algebra, mightn't it be al-Khwarizmi?

Khwarizmi wasn't Arab, either. In modern terms he was Iranian, or Tajik, or something like that.

Most everything originates from India.

RFK Jr developed brain 🪱 worm...

This motherfuckers caveman policies killed 80 Samoan children and resurrected measles

This guy is a fucking idiot.

Wrong about the present, wrong as hell about history. There are serious problems with Arab/Muslim nations, and they have nothing to do with race or even religion, and everything to do with authoritarianism. RFKjr and Trump have put us in that race to the bottom.

O.M.G !!!!! & wtf?!

6 Arabs won the Nobel Peace Prize 1 Arab won the Nobel For Literature 3 Arabs won the Nobel for Sciences All between 1978 and 2025. Now did I know that? Of course not, I spent 3 minutes researching this roadkill eating moron. Jesus were an embarrassment

Suddenly interested in science are we? Nobel prize is important now?

I felt that RFK’s reference to "the Arabs" was somewhat disrespectful. I wanted to soften that by using quotation marks. I find this behavior—insulting entire population groups—appalling. Trump does the same thing. They are simply small-minded people.

He’s a fucking caricature of a caricature. And he’s our Secretary of Health and Human Services. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Just plain false. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

The Middle East was the center of knowledge RFK should have another MRI That worm likely ate MOST of his tiny brain 🧠

Doesn't this degenerate pestilence of a man have to go lie on a pile of festering animal corpses somewhere

Hey, that's spelled with a 'b'! Not many people are smart enough to know that!

Nebraska probably?

Shhhh! Don’t tell them! If they find out, they’ll ban algebra, and then we’re really screwed!!

Racism, bigotry, and worms ate his brain.

His family must be so cringed out by his repeated burbling about shit he knows fuck all about

I know it’s not the point but why is that backdrop so low?

RFK knows a whole lot of facts that aren't true. His Wuhan Cover-Up book is dazzling by the sheer quantity of annotations of brilliant sounding references that are all false. He has no idea that he's wrong about everything. The truth discerning function of his mind has turned to worm shit.

But they invented algebra

Smh, sounds like someone's been snorting coke off toilet seats again . . .

Not to mention all the remarkable Arab scientists working in the US right now (and the ones who will never come here bc of racist fools like Kennedy).

Every time these fuckers open their mouths they prove what idiots they are. Unbelievable.

What is the context of the drivel and nonsense.

Uh pretty sure computers exist because of ALgebra

Uh europe got christened during the dark ages... Big Chung of europe was pagan 700 years ago

He is stunningly ignorant and racist!

Idiocracy on display by a Kennedy no less. His family should arrange an intervention to get him out of public view. Shameful ignorance and racism.

Fascinating to see the Secretary of health and human services not understand that the internet exists:

An ignoramus says what ?

Wait until this douche figures out what Arabic numbers are.

Sure. But if he’s gonna make himself look ignorant to do that, we should take the opportunity to mock him for it.

What a cretin.

Just gutter racism.

This is insane racist garbage. I want to provide a personal counterpoint. I had a pediatric medical condition. My treating specialist was a Muslim man from an Arab-speaking country. He was a wonderful doctor, person, and scientist. Decades later, I met physicians that he trained & he was so beloved.

He’s even worse than I thought.

And this has to do with health and human services how 🤔? I can’t wait for the impeachment hearings 🥳!

What a fucking ass
