I’m a big UFC fan so Saudi Arabia being involved in my media is nothing new. That said, it seems fairly hypocritical for alot of the outspoken comics to participate. Opinions?

    I’m just sick of the Saudis forcing their way into everything just because they have lots of money and oil reserves to do it with.

    They’ve recently acquired EA. They have a WrestleMania being hosted in their capital. They’re having the 2027 Olympics hosted there. And now this.

    It’s like we’re all catering to this idea to humanize a country that has a history of religious extremism, extreme misogyny and absolute corruption. It won’t change a thing.
