I'm having trouble with that last sentence, what's it supposed to mean?

[–] Sakychu@lemmy.world 18 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (3 children)

"(In) Sha Allah" is an expression which can be translates to "if gods wills". It refers to the idea that in Islamic religions nothing happens without god wanting it.

But more colloquially it is used as a wish of something to happend.

Cabal can either refer to a secret group of individuals who gather for political influence or as a synonym for conspiracy.

So the sentence could be read as: "hopefully a cabalic takeover will turn into a federal takedown*"

I think it reads more like "Hopefully the secret political group takeover that occurred will result in their federal takedown". However, my fluency in 'nutjob' is pretty rusty.

Oh yeah right my brain changed "takedown" to a 2nd "takeover". That makes a little more sense!

It is also used by parents who want to shut their kids up when they are asking something

Kids in car: can we get McDonald's?

Parents driving: inshallah (no)

I think they're trying to suggest Biden is in office as part of some Qabalist ritual. I think they just don't know how to spell Qaballah.

Inshallah is Arabic for "God willing".
