Don’t worry guys. You can just attend the iconic Esports World Cup (life changing money, btw) and see how great Saudi Arabia really is.
and zero fucks are given when saudi arabia calls for de escalation etc
a shitty regime. stop buying oil and gas and bam their country is dead. they produce nothing relevant, they educate no one and have culture of patriarchy that was hip a 1000 years ago. saudi arabia isnt a country is a facist scam.
This is the kind of scum we choose as our allies. Disgraceful.
They also assassinated Kashoggi, who was living in Germany at that time. But give it 2 more years and you will hear similar news from the US
Why wait? Cops are already shooting rubber bullets at journalists during protests and doing all kinds of illegal things to them for the crime of-well there is no crime, actually, except for what’s being committed by the cops.
As an American I give it one year, maybe less.
In spite of the speed run, the calendar is ticking quicker than I imagined. I think the vibe around the midterms when primary season kicks off, will paint a picture of what’s next.
Saudi Arabia and Israel. The best allies.
Are we the baddies?
Did nobody open a history book before two years ago? We’ve been the imperial iron fist of the West for a century. Since manifest destiny and the Monroe doctrine even.
I just came to terms with not hating our past, bc better us than Russia, North Korea, Iran, et al running the show. But bruh - we’ve got our warts. Covered in em.
Cheap consumer goods come from advantageous trade relationships. Trade is impacted by regimes, culture, military size differences, etc. Do the math. Lookup Dole and why them bananas so cheap. Need faster cheaper shipping, let’s buy Panama! The list is endless.
Very much yes.
Honestly surprising to me there’s anyone left brave enough to be a journalist in Saudi Arabia
