I know it's unrelated to the thread, but I'd personally never go to a country that doesn't treat, women, gays, apostates etc as equals, I think these countries are absolutely terrible and I'm not fooled by them having "show cities" where they pretend that they're not that way.

A country that still has a medieval mindset in the third millennium is not getting a penny from me.

I understand your concern, but assuming someone looks over all of that, there isn't something genuinely exciting about it.

Not to mention the terrible traffic it is in now due to the Russia- Ukraine war, other unstable countries within the region, the terrible public transport system Dubai has anyway.

If you're American, you should pull the ejection seat lever.

Unfortunately the ejection seat lever is a paid DLC I cannot afford.
