So what makes this worse then doing a show for the US? And I don’t mean just now with Trump the US has been doing horrible stuff for decades, but do they get a pass because they are the “good” guys.
Not the same scenario.
The equivalent would be these comedians doing a set that was paid for by the White House, with a list of restrictions on what could be said. Which would receive just as much backlash
And how many of these comedians hold their tongue regarding religion and people of power when performing in their home country? Or when touring internationally on non-state-funded tours?
Don’t take my opinion of these comedians as anti-Saudi. I was plenty anti-Saudi before this. If these ‘comedians’ agreed to take money from the US president to not make mean jokes about him, I’d be just as disgusted at their lack of spine.
No it says alot about you. The US has done horrible things but they get a free pass. Because they’re the good guys and they’re BS manifest Destiny complex.
Let’s see removed democratically elected leaders in countries to stick in their sock puppet government.
Then goes to eat against that government when it no longer listens to them.
Then whisks people away tons jail where they get no.trial or anything and tortures them.
I mean the US is responsible for more deaths and pain and suffering then the Saudis. So why are they not worse because they’re white.
Then not mention what Americas consumerist culture is and has done to the world.
Who says we get a free pass? The US isn’t all white…
You know, it doesn’t matter… The US and everyone in it is a villain. We’re the worst country with the worst people. Someone should nuke us all and then the world would be a better place. All the white people here are just awful. Death to America!!
i agree, the US has obviously committed far more heinous acts and destabilised specific countries and the world way more than anything the Saudis have done.

I mean they had Guatemala bay for how long.

You can’t tell which is worse? That says a lot about you.
