Reply to comment by BBsmoothLSD in US woman detained by Saudi officials after saying she has been trapped there since 2019 by hugglenugget

No no, it's funny that people think they have the rights of the country they're from... In a completely different country. Kidnap isn't funny, but then... I don't really know wtf she expected to happen.

She expected her autonomy as an adult woman who is free from her former husband would be respected, just as it would be in any western society. Try getting that through that skull of yours.

Why would she do that knowing where she's travelling, that's stupid. Know the dangers of where you're going, what she did is like swimming with sharks whilst covered in blood.

>just as it would be in any western society.

Narator: it isn't a western society, see even you have the problem I just described above and said it was hilarious.. It really is.

>Try getting that through that skull of yours.

Are you... Mentally compromised?

But she traveled to the Kingdom of Saud. I wouldn't go there as a visibly trans person. Women aren't exactly much higher on the chain so to speak. They are just saying, we don't all get a black hawk down for traveling.

I'm a white, straight male, but I'm an atheist... I wouldn't go there either so, I hope you take this in good spirit "neither of us pass there".

Plus I'm English, everyone hates us anyway lol. Here's life on hard mode, we both travel there, I'll wear some obnoxious atheist stuff on a tshirt, and you travel as my unmarried date.. Recon we could talk our way out of it?

I like to think there's an assumption of that lovely colonizer cash to the countries that host at least. Definitely notice a shift in dynamics in some places over others just the same. Also, hang in there, I dont envy your local ride either. Wild times.
