It’s Saudi Arabia. They’re basically in the dark ages with the oil money to buy modern infrastructure. It’s an absolute monarchy, You get the death penalty for being any flavor of queer, It’s a surveillance state. They literally sent a kill squad into a foreign nation to (successfully) brutally murder a journalist. We don’t hear it much because of all the other constant noise in the digital world but they’re not good people. Everyone turns a blind eye because they have that sweet sweet oil and since like the 70s the US has been on it’s knees for them.

Don’t get me wrong here. It’s a very nice looking place but it’s built on some of the most terrible human rights abuses you can name.

They have almost open slavery. It’s not a good place. The fact that they were allowed to buy EA at all is a problem.
