The Arab Numerals joke is old. I heard this over two decades ago in the wake of 9/11 and I’m sure it’s not the first iteration.
It’s funny because the anti muslims are ignorant of the contributions muslims made to society and language, and are unaware those are the numerals we use.

I know, it’s getting dumber too. A lot dumber.
Many of their influencers, it’s not that they don’t know, they don’t care. They are playing the sheep, and they’ve been taught from their influencers and leaders how to do it, and truth plays little to no part in any of it.
