      As a Saudi who was born and live there, it has always baffled me how, despite the government and royal family being comically evil, the majority will still support them.

      Even if you tell them and show them proof of the horrible crimes against humanity that happens daily, they’ll either try to justify it, or brush it off saying “doesn’t affect me”.

      The projects that are getting build there are using labourers from third world country in the most inhumane conditions still going unnoticed.

      Same here in case of plastics.Let the world go to hell but the Sheikh s get their coffers filled with cash.
