Saudi Arabia is attempting to reassure LGBTQ+ visitors ahead of hosting the 2034 World Cup, even though homosexuality remains criminalised.

      I still think it’s more important to deinflate the egos of Americans and Europeans first, because they are causing more harm to the world with their influence than these smaller and oppressed countries like Arab or African ones.

      You will always see people that respond like you. “We can do both.” “Both can be true at the same time.” But you never see them believe it, respect it or practice it at all. Just read all the comments in this post. They all treat younger cultures like shit. They rather kill them than let them grow and learn like their own did. They have 0 tolerance.

          If you won’t explain why, you will come across as someone who benefits the Jeffrey Epstein Class. It will be so easy for me to convince people that you benefit those child rapists.

          You’re doing their job of spreading anti-Muslim propaganda to further hurt innocent people. You are a piece of shit

        “We can do both.”

        Yeah. I agree. Start with what’s within your span of control. MENA people want freedom, good government and rule of law as much as anyone does. Reducing foreign interference and no longer propping up corrupt despots would go a long way towards enabling people to be more empowered there. But beyond that, they have to do the work themselves: you can’t bomb people to democracy and human rights.
