Fuck Saudi Arabia 🖕
They sentenced a woman to 34 YEARS in prison (and subsequently a 34 y travel ban), for following (and liking/tweeting about) 'the wrong people' like human rights activist and calling for the release of political prisoners like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loujain_al-Hathloul
Fuck G👀gle and Apple for helping: https://mastodon.technology/@rysiek/108840678927684506
And for their WAR CRIMES in #Yemen, like a triple tab strike (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_tap#Double_tap_strike) on a food market.

When the Taliban does such insane shit, the world can't shut up about and puts sanctions on them.
The Saudis have been doing the same/similar shit for decades and ... well nothing.
