Rumors that MBS escaped an assassination attempt
There's feminist. And then there's feminazi.I may be old fashioned but I think this is non-controversial:
if something is feminist, it should not harm women. If it harms women, it is not feminist.
Or invite them to a conference at a private hotel and lock the doors from outside, MBS style.
Maybe they are just gold diggers. Like this actress who almost married an American-Israeli billionaire, but parted ways shortly after because he refused to sign a prenup.

LMAO - heroic Uyghurs.
Guess who got one of this year's Pulitzer Prizes? Who else? The New York Times of course.
While it's true that modern feminism have caused some setback for "tradition" and or "societal" expectation of women in many parts around the world, especially the western world including in China. We should not be too quick in forgetting how a lot of women suffered through neglect, abused, both from within their families, and the society that now demands for them to essentially go back to the kitchen so to speak.
There must be a serious societal conversation that must be had in all of our societies with respect to how women want to foster a sense of value with their true worth whole, intact, and respected equal and very important member of our society that we all need to go forward if we have to continue on living on this planet and beyond.
Now having said all that, there are still many countries around the world that treat their women like their worst than 2nd class citizens all for daring to be bold, daring, and for speaking up for their own dreams, ambitions, and voice.
Here is a prime example of how a woman in one of the central Asian countries fare. A wife of a prominent politician, a former "ECONOMIC" MINISTER no less of KAZAKHSTAN beating his wife senseless for allegedly 8 hours leading to her death. The man was hitting his now deceased wife PUBLICLY seemingly unafraid of the consequences of his actions. My blood was boiling watching just the glimpse of the video. That man is a bleeping P.O.S. and he needs to be beaten senselessly for doing what he did.
I know the link is from our favourite anti-China basher, but the reporting and what's been said do not distract from the actual reality. The dude is a murdering coward.

Would be wholly unsurprising if true. His flirtation with normalizing relations with Israel and a US defence treaty must have went down like a cup of cold sick with many Saudis.
Those women are no different than men in my opinion. If given the same acceptance of beauty for Asian/Chinese/East Asian men around the world or to be lusted by "European/White women, I believe most of us would not be spewing this over the top criticism of these sort of women. For every Zhang Ziyi and Michelle Yeoh, there are countless Asian women that sticks to their kind due to cultural, and societal affinity. I personally don't find it abhorrent or repulsive in the least if some of these Asians want to mate with white dudes. What I find objectionable is when they would trash our kind for no other reason than feeling they're now better than their counterparts simply because they're with a white male partner. That's trashy, crude, classless, and frankly embarrassingly cringe.
He created a lot of internal enemies from within the royal family for violating Saudi customs and inheritance laws, i.e. him and his father broke the customs to make him crown prince ahead of many others who were the legitimate next in line. Then he also incarcerated countless Saudi royals that opposed him, while forcing others to cede their claims. Some are still missing and presumed dead, while a few died in mysterious accidents.
Ah yes, I was forgetting about his shakedown of pretty much every rich Saudi shortly after he took control He must have a lot of enemies at home.
