    It’s very easy to be outraged on the internet. It’s very difficult to enact real world changes in a positive direction.

    Although I’m American I know real Saudis who are trying to make positive changes in the country and in the region. This is a small example of the their success.

      You stfu you lying twat. You don’t know real saudis. no rational Saudi is happy about the poverty, repression, unreprested high taxes, corruption and stealing of country’s wealth, oil and resources, no freedom of speech, zero political participation or reprezentation, illegal, forced and lethal eviction of lands for government projects, lack of government support and jailing , killing, and torturing and beheadings of all protestors and human right activists. They have an entire minestry that pays shill to spread bullshit propaganda online.

      It fucking disgusts me when an American with his freedom and rights says that people in corrupt oppressive dictatorships love it and doing good when they can’t even voice anything on their own

        I hate to break it to you, my friend, but there are many, many wonderful people even in the terrible places of the world. I’m sorry that you haven’t met enough of them to have any optimism about humanity.
