You spelled ‘cancer’ wrong
As someone who grew up Muslim, this goes against some very basic pillars of islam. This country, and all “religious” governments in fact, never actually follow the religion they use to control their people. It’s corruption to the root. If those religions were real (me being a god has the same Probability) then they’re all burning in hell forever without redemption. Not what I would’ve done as a god, but I’m not an asshole.
Saudi Arabia isn’t a person. I hate it when news titles aren’t specific enough. Is it the government that bought them? A private company? Just a dude that happens to be Saudi? The implications can change drastically based on who bought it.
Also the article link isn’t working for me so all i got is the title. And as most people that’d see it, they’d also only read the title, this type of simplification can lead to a lot of misinformation. Or worse, racism, as you combine a whole country and its people to one entity which is dehumanizing. I’m speaking from experience as a Saudi person who’s always grouped with the “saudi” or "Arabic " or “brown” groups instead of another human being.
In short, news should stop generalizing and be more specific, especially in the titles, the part that most people will interact with.
