i'm gonna be honest, haven't seen any up close. aren't they always cheap plastic pieces of shit? or are og poles really made of metal?
do they carry them around in a suitcase?
brass metal, or maybe bronze for a decent quality but brass toned plastic for cheapies.
but say you do like negotiations in the middle of nowhere, like those breakaway republics of yemen v 3.4, do they bring them in in suitcase? it's not like you can go on aliexpress
Well someone has to make them. They're cast metal, so you have to have a person who can cast metal, and a person who can design one, unless one person is doing both jobs, which is possible. But each country or place has to have someone who can do those things otherwise you risk a foreign entity doing something like casting a massive dong onto an eagle, or instead of that decorative orb with the pointy thing on top like in the link there you get one that looks like a giant boob pointing up instead. Thats not a good look.
new dreamjob - become pole-bearer for some exotic pole-enjoyer and carry them in a private jet around, screw them on, and then sit pretty outside.
in watertight,shockproof boxes with closed cell foam.
I don't get it.

Edit
I think I got it. I sort of got it? Anyway - close enough. At first I though it was a pareidolia joke.
you can see these poles with countries and "countries" strongly associated with saudis in the linked tweet.
compare for example france/cameroon: 
the poster implies it's exclusively saudis shape, but i haven't paid attention (before 
)
Flared base.
At least they don't slap weird Nazi-vibes golden eagles on everything
I'm watching Poles for most of the day and i must say it's not something particularly interesting.
