    Interesting choice to translate "fuck the world" as "encule le monde" but "fuck the children" as "enmerde les enfants".

    Seems like they knew how bad it sounded in English but rolled with it anyway.

    well that's due to "encule" being very sexually connoted whereas it is not as much in English
    thus the differentiation.

    that's an UNDERSTATEMENT !

    (context: that's the former president of France)
