That is a fake Latin quote; illegitimus non carborundum, or nil illigitimi carborundum, etc is not real Latin. Non means not, nil means nothing, but the other two words are made up. They do not exist in the Latin language. I first heard this one about 20 years ago, and it has certainly stuck around, but there is nothing to it. These are just made up words.

The quote in your question is extremely bad Latin and really means nothing.
It would be kind of right to say: "Neque tolera illegitimos te carborundare", although that would be fairly atrocious still, but at least it would make some sense.

In German it is " Lass dich von den Schweinen nicht unterkriegen!"
as the German word "Bastard" is not usually used as an invective, I put in the more usual word for "pig" instead
