ever heard of saudi arabia?

they too give gay people the death sentence and murder protestor and they're allies of the united state.

Why is Saudi Arabia a standard to you?

[–] Lenins_Dumbbell@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 4 hours ago

It's not a standard, it's the West's double standard. It's obvious that the Westerners absolutely do not give a shit about human rights whatsoever.

It's all just a cover up for stealing Iran's resources. Because if they actually gave a shit, they wouldn't be best pals with Saudi Arabia.

Anything a Western county says about human rights should be immediately discarded as propaganda
