| Topic | Crown prince of Saudi Arabia's charity foundation to buy 51% ownership of SNK |
| PrivateBiscuit1 11/27/20 2:28:05 PM #6: | Like you need to ignore the very publicly known execution of that journalist. And then you need to ignore the human rights violations in which they straight murder any LGBT people and women are treated like second class citizens and also executed for minor infractions. The Saudi Prince himself is also a horrible person. He literally had a bunch of WWE wrestlers held hostage on a plane over Vince McMahon demanding he be paid and cutting the video feed on a show in Saudi Arabia (the Saudi Prince just didn't want to pay WWE what they agreed upon), and they had armed soldiers just surrounding a plane with a bunch of wrestlers on it while the pilot was told not to leave. Eventually the payment dispute was resolved somehow and they finally let them leave the country. And if WWE is any indication, it's reasonable to assume that SNK will be a part of their propaganda. They forced WWE to show video packages about how advanced and amazing their country is, and about how they're being so progressive now, and forcing announcers to talk up what a wonderful country it is--especially to the women who they definitely don't stone to death! Like full stop, the Prince is an awful man in charge of a terrible country. I can't tell anyone to stop supporting SNK now, and I know it isn't the fault of the developers there who I'm sure are fine people, but I can strongly encourage anyone to not support them over this. --- I stream sometimes.
