Anybody who'd look to a country that was built on the genocide of the native population, inspired the nazis, has been at war 225 out of 243 years of its existence, massacred over 6 million people with its war on terror while displacing another 37 million, and is now openly backing a genocide by Israel, really needs to check their moral compass.

Oh yeah dude don't get me wrong, fuck the apartheid state of israel.

It still doesn't make Saudi Arabia preferable to the USA in terms of human rights lol

Saudi Arabia doesn't have the power to dick around with human rights halfway across the globe.

US is objectively responsible for far worse crimes against humanity across the globe. SA might be worse domestically, but in a global context there's no contest here.
