David Cross wrote an open letter condemning the comedians who agreed to perform, writing that he was "disgusted, and deeply disappointed" that comedians he admired "would condone this totalitarian fiefdom for... what, a fourth house? A boat? More sneakers?" Some performing comedians defended accepting the offer. Jim Jefferies argued that Saudi Arabia's human rights record was comparable to that of the United States, while Pete Davidson said he was offered enough money to overcome his reservations.

Blaming 9/11 on the Saudis is pretty ignorant. The Saudi government did not support Osama Bin Laden. The Saudi government wanted to arrest Bin Laden long before 9/11. The Saudi government and Bin Landen were enemies.

Blaming 9/11 on the Saudi government is pretty racist. As if all Saudis are the same. This is like blaming the US government for the Oklahoma City bombing just because both are white Americans.

The Saudi government partners with the CIA to hunt down terrorists. The Saudi government does not like terrorism because terrorists threaten the Saudi monarchy. Bin Laden hated the Saudi government for cooperating with Americans.

Of course the Saudi human rights record is gross and these comedians are corrupt.

They still killed that journalist and taking their money when many of these comedians talk shit about "sell outs" ESPECIALLY Bill Burr, Louis CK and Dave Chappelle is insanely immoral and hypocritical:

For sure.

This comedy tour is MBS's way of laundering his image.

Arabia is a place for battle royale.  One faction getting US support to suppress another faction. And another faction doing this or that to gain the upper hand. It is a shit show. I don’t think the royal house of Saudis have better morals than those other factions. They were all snake eaters until they found their oil.
