Elon Musk Silent on Man Sentenced to Death for His Tweets
Honestly, what is the best strategy to confront this? Speaking out and protesting about injustice works in the US because the Bill of Rights guarantees Freedom of Speech. In totalitarian regimes, there is no such right for the people. There are no means by which we can combat MBS. Imagining that westerners protesting MBS on the internet might lead to any real positive change is a pipe dream. It won&#x27;t stop the US government from trading with Saudi Arabia. It&#x27;s more likely MBS will have access to Twitter&#x2F;X blocked. Such a protest may backfire in the same way that protesting Donald Trump gave him more attention, with the main difference being, there is absolutely no legal mechanism by which MBS could be taken down. Such protests may only strengthen the image of power he has. Additionally, if MBS wanted to, he could easily use Saudi Arabia&#x27;s resources to build their own Arab-centric version of X&#x2F;Twitter.
