The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

It's fucking Dubai.. Why would you want to go there?
A monument to man's arrogance, literal slaves, rampant misogyny, homophobia Yada Yada. Terrifying laws based on ultra conservative religions. Routinely one of the hottest places in the world and extremely expensive.
Just fucking why?
I have the same mindset against Dubai and would never visit it. That said I know a perfectly normal colleague who has been there with his family 2 or 3 times and said he would probably go there again. Don't recall why they liked it there that much.
That list sounds like a way to remind Brittan of it's glory days, but warm.
In its glory days, Britain had plenty of warm spots.
Yeah like Jamaica! An infinitely better place to vacation than Dubai.
My guess is that the bri'ish family is either composed of rich assholes wanting to show off they're rich, or of scammers that still haven't got caught. Seriously, that city is a magnet for scammers to spend money on.
Because for some people those are features.
But for people who those are features, they are very likely to be Muslim or at the least Arabic and therefore, probably somewhat similar to their home.
I'm saying for a westerner, to think you can go the and have a great time safely, you're deluded.
Uh, I don't think so. Perhaps very specifically the religious laws, but besides that you don't have to look far among westerners to find those for whom...
... are rather a nice prospect, actually.
This place is so backwards.
Let's look the past the fact you're a moron, attempting to make a point on behalf of your brother's in christ, the gays.
And let's dive in.
Are there homophobic and misogynistic westerners who like slaves? Absolutely.
Now have a think how many of them also like Muslims and the middle east and want to go to a Muslim country with no alcohol that judges them?
Sshhhhhhh child, no more talking.
Lmao the "shh child" such a bad boy
You just can't get the same calibre of mouth-shitting instagram whores anywhere else.
