Main Paineframe posted:Sure, what's your point? Based on the title and very limited OP of this thread, I expected you to be criticizing Saudi Arabia's human rights record, not halfassedly calling out the US for supporting Bad People. It's the Chomsky school of moral criticism. Something is only worth criticizing if it can be Kevin Bacon'd back to the USA.

icantfindaname posted:yeah but it's worse because it's the ME and the undermining of liberal democracy has turned the entire region into a hellscape warzone. like africa is already a shithole, it doesn't matter if the US supports a lovely dictator there. this is literally the reason why the ME is hosed up I wonder what D&D's opinion on US support for Israel, the Middle East's sole liberal democracy, is.

SedanChair posted:It's now "Kevin Bacon" to point out that the U.S. hypocritically enables Saudi brutality. It's tumblr as well I suspect. How is the US enabling them to crucify someone.

I get the odd feeling that the situation is more complex than "western puppetmasters rewarding lapdogs"
