-LITERALLY Republicans!
A transactions for the architects of 9/11 to the architects of 9/11, sweet.
1 year after the transaction
Typical GOP Voter: 9/11 was all the jews! Bin Laden wasn't even a real person!
Don't be silly, they'll blame it on trans people
Imagine if any had been trans Atlantic or trans pacific flights...
It’s square now, our king got a palace in the sky and that’s what matters.
Ballrooms, arcs, palaces
The people will sacrifice whether they want to our not.
Yall weren't sacrificing already?

Because of course nothing can go wrong with that.
On the one hand we could imagine them clamping down on riske material and promote islamicism, but to be real having lived in the gulf for many years they care more about money than anything else. So prepare for more neoliberal enshittification.
Saudi Arabia and UAE are absolutely not going to be promoting Islamism (Qatar is more complicated). Islamists are the biggest enemies of entrenched authoritarian regimes in most of the Middle East, so even ones with a veneer of religion are trying hard to gain legitimacy as secular nationalist dictators. For example remember that one story about the UAE being like "Britain harbors dangerous islamists? The translation here is "this foreign liberal democracy is harboring enemies of my authoritarian regime." If anything both of them (but probably not (Qatar) are already pushing for more bellicose US policy in the Middle East, because they're vassal regimed whose survival depends on the continued interest of their imperial masters.

At least no more Arabs as the bad guys in Hollywood, right? right?
This has been going on for awhile. I’ve said it a few times. Saudi Arabia has been quietly buying up a ton of companies along with various Trump allies and sometimes outrighting funding those Trump ally companies.
They invest in many Trump related companies as well as partnering with Russia’s Soverign Weath Fund.
Everyone is so worried about China, they are letting Saudia Arabia buy up everything behind the scenes.
I would trust a government that kills reporters, hangs out with Epstein, or likely helped fund 9/11 terrorist attacks.
There’s a list of PIF investments in Wikipedia. PIF
It is honestly pretty funny that they are currently incapable at protecting themselves even with top of the line equipment. They've also spent way too much money on completely useless megaprojects, failed to buy up large swaths of Arizona land for alfalfa, and haven't built any large internal industries to transition them away from their status as a petrostate aside from a few luxury electric car manufacturing plants.

Who bailed Elon out and helped him buy Twitter? Who do you think Trump was selling those fucking cases full of classified Intel to? It's so sad watching this all play out with nothing to do about it.

Why do people who complain about Muslims want to give our industries away to Islamic countries?
They only dislike Muslims who aren't billionaires.
They dislike everyone but their own, but they still get hard-ons for billionaires.
Because there's money to be made by looking the other way. The "revolving door" is open to high level government bureaucrats and they want their payday after their "public service"
Power is the only real religion.
It's like making billions of dollars changes your point of view. Weird.
I’m so happy everything in the world is gonna be owned by 5 people and 2 countries.
They are going to run this into the ground. They have no idea how art works other than they want to buy the stuff people are watching.
MBS is Trump with more murder and less term limits
*Fewer
Sorry had to do it.
More murder only because we know about it! And only if you don't consider the people murdered by Trump's regime (like ICE murders and the Iranian school bombing).
I’m glad I cancelled paramount plus a while ago
I suggested boycotting them in a previous topic and got replied "whoa you want us to stop watching movies and tv??"
Same. I'd like to cancel again though, to show them!
I wish I could charge money to companies I hate.
Just sending plausible invoices to large corporations works waaaaaay more often than you’d think. The only downside is that the penalties are severe if you’re caught. Have an exit strategy.

Saudi Arabia is evil, but perhaps this is the only way to teach Americans the error of their ways
They will betray us
I dunno, the only way they could seemingly betray paramount is to put watchable shows on it.
Last week on Muhammed's wives
Queer eye for the Sunni guy
Will? Did auto-correct not fix it to have?
Where is reuters on this? This is right up their alley, I have to think the omission is on purpose as this is news.
omission is a legit logical error

Saudi Arabia also bought EA, which wasn't a great company to begin with.

Can't be worse than the Ellisons. Changes nothing.
Sure it can't. Team Bonesaws And Islamist Petro-Monarchy can't possibly be worse.
Team Bonesaws is definitely worse than the Ellisons, but they're both in the Blight Against Humanity Hall of Fame.
The reporting you did last week on us was kind of poor, we require you to update your passport and come visit us so we can discuss it all in person...
Lmao, wb agreement did make Ellison's go broke.
It's OK, the other 50.5% is owned by Israel.
is it truly any wonder why the u.s. is car pilled? our culture is being controlled by oil tycoons

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
