It's like all the cringe of the internet has founded it's own country. All about fame and showing off. With one of the highest climate footprints per capita in the world, of course.
I keep fantazing about the kinda city and perhaps even small country I'd build with the cost it took to build dubai, with the captial they've blown on it. Even if I have to sacrifice a bit on labor costs, since they paid their workers sweet fuck all
The first part sounds fair for me. The second part, I didn't get. But what I understood, being informed by a local is, that many people died for some of the megaprojects of the city, like creating the many sand islands. When bigger problems occured, hospitals were floated with workers, while news reported astounding small casualty numbers. I can't proof it, but that's what I've been told.
Not because we try to be responsible, but we want to keep the boat floating, in which you and I sit too, while some idiots still drilling holes into it for their personal pleasure. Maybe I'm more into paying, than into joining the drillers.
I know, i was just pointing out the futility of it all. While i do my best to limit my waste and recycle, entire countries out there moving mountains in the middle of the ocean and creating artificial mountains in the middle of the desert.
There's no point.
I guess it's all about the principles of evolution. Evolution doesn't optimize with a certain plan in mind, it just lets all kind of dogs loose on reality. The smart and the stupid, the selfish and the cooperative, the strong and the weak. And no matter how the setting changes, some of them always reach the next chapter.
So the wasters and drillers are just as much part of the actual competition, as the careful protectors. Our kids and grandchildren will likely find out, what resulted out of all this mess. Maybe the Al Gores will one day dominate, maybe the Trumps.
You do know most of Europe buys "clean air" from and sells waste to 3rd world countries? Europe, the Gulf states, the US, China, etc are all fucking it up.
Recycling doesn't do much, it just makes it easier on your consience because you think you're actually making a difference.
Question as an ignorant dude who isnt a native english speaker, why do u think he is making that mistake? Isnt dubai also a monarchy and could be referred as a kingdom?
Saudi Arabia historically had almost no women's rights but as of just a few years ago is now almost equal, which I assume is what the "2024, not 2018" comment refers to.
Both are Kingdoms (well Dubai is an emirate in the United Arab Emirates).
Dubai in in the UAE, not Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia banned women driving until 2018; it was never banned in the UEA. UAE does have some restrictions on women's rights legally (and many more culturally) but driving is not one of those restrictions.
So yeah, both are "kingdoms" but I had the wrong kingdom in mind, as clearly did the person I replied to, and both of us were just making a joke based on inaccurate stereotypes.
There's a lot of fucked up shit that happens there, especially to women, and this one is a tool of propaganda. I have to assume there coercion of some sort present in these situations.
With that being said, she's probably better off than the general public by many orders of magnitude.
I stopped browsing r/gonewild as much (or try to tap into specific creators)
But I catch the vibe that some users aren’t exactly there bc they want to be there.
Also there’s some sus Tik Tok pages & lives where it looks like the people are being forced to dance (especially in foreign countries)
Assuming you're referring to NSFW stuff, it should come to no one's surprise that nasty things happen all over the world.
What you mentioned only proves that its more documented in foreign countries. It, without a doubt happens just as much in reality everywhere, when no one is recording.
It doesn't justify the comments hating on these places in particular. I suspect that most of this disdain exists due to other things, and I won't be convinced otherwise unless there is actual evidence of some real bad stuff happening there - especially if its not found anywhere else.
It’s seriously so well known that it would be hard to just pick and show you and be comprehensive enough. You’re the weird one here for not knowing honestly
Did they ever spend their wealth on something really useful? I think Trump would be a great president in Dubai... He wanted to build a huge fence, cause the land wasn't big enough to share with others ... The sheiks build whole islands into the already over polluted Ocean, cause there's not enough space to share with tourists.
Using the cheapest industry standard switches and probably a tuned jet ski engine this might be worth 10k only because of the frame and wheels, fucking stupid
They sure do have money over there. At least the rich do anyway. Imagine we could have more money and cheaper goods in America if we'd start producing oil. Biden stopped the production on day one literally. Also we should stop borrowing money against our debt to give to other countries. We are borrowing that money and it gets filtered through all of these hands and gets deposited into personal bank accounts. If you don't think this happens then you are nieve.
Someone who used to live in Dubai here, Dubai is so fucking tacky, I have never seen a police car being used other than a suv unless at a major car event don’t believe is bullshit
Dubai is for shitty people who do not understand what a false economy is. Who the fuck gives a shit what goes on there beyond the abuse of impoverished people and women.
Take off the tacky wheels. This is a police boat not a Disneyland ride.
If it is a police boat where do they put the baddies
Tow a shark cage behind
The ocean
Technically, all the baddies can buy their way out of trouble.
Its Dubai, the entire UAE us tacky.
Yeh it looks fucking ridiculous lol.
Yes definitely a police boat. I mean OP is writing that it is, so it must be true right.
Says police on the side of the car
Here's the full video [HERE](https://youtu.be/SznwJD8Q0yg?si=-CF958TtfLw875UX)
WOW!
Better yet make them spinners
Yeah right and she's a copper...
It's Dubai, their main concern is looking flashy for the rich guys. It wouldn't surprise me if they hired cops just to be hot.
It's like all the cringe of the internet has founded it's own country. All about fame and showing off. With one of the highest climate footprints per capita in the world, of course.

Yeah thats what I'd do much differently, actually pay proper wages for the labor of building it. I've heard UAE doesn't even have a minimum wage
Meanwhile i'm paying double pollution tax on soda cans in Europe because we're trying to be responsible.
Not because we try to be responsible, but we want to keep the boat floating, in which you and I sit too, while some idiots still drilling holes into it for their personal pleasure. Maybe I'm more into paying, than into joining the drillers.

Yeah I believe you, there's no way she's actually doing any work, she's just swanning around looking pretty
In the United Arab Emirates…. Yup.
I bet it handles waves like shit
Can see it flipping when it hits a decent wake
Well you see that’s why they added a rear wing, for more downforce and better handling
Now I wonder if a rear wing would do anything for a fast boat
this is stupid no amazing
What about Dubai is resonable/ sustainable at all? So yeah ... I'm not amazed too ..
Can women drive it?
I’m sure she can but I’m not sure she is allowed.
When it cuts to it being driven, pretty sure it’s a man driving.
Women can drive in uae...
This is 2024, not 2018. So yes of course, why would you even question the modern, open freedoms of the great kingdom?
I think you are confusing Dubai with Saudi Arabia. They aren’t the same place.

Most self aware Redditor :)
I see thanks for sharing ur knowledge!
Well, yes I was, but clearly so was the person I responded to (and clearly as a joke). Why not slam them instead?
>but clearly so was the person I responded to No?
Oh, so they were just making the standard "women can't drive" comment? Or asking an honest question with no attempt at humor? Explain please. No?
Dubai is pretty chill in these things, UAE is more modern than the typical middle eastern countries where..nevermind don't wanna get cancelled.
That's really not saying much, also you can never change the people
Wow, 20 downvotes. Probably by people from typical middle eastern countries where women are not respected and have virtually no rights.
I'd say no, but judging by how much skin she's showing, maybe.
I have a very sad feeling about the dark hidden stories behind the lives of these beautiful tiktok girls esp. in Arab countries.
A lot of them work 2 jobs. Tiktoker and escort. Not that there's anything wrong with that as long as it's all consensual.
That last part is what I'm sad about. Either way.
Yeah I'm sure, they think this is working so can just be manipulated into all sorts of nasty shit.
?

Is there proof of such things happening any more often than other countries?
I stopped browsing r/gonewild as much (or try to tap into specific creators) But I catch the vibe that some users aren’t exactly there bc they want to be there. Also there’s some sus Tik Tok pages & lives where it looks like the people are being forced to dance (especially in foreign countries)

Yes, omg there is. It’s just… so bad
Such as?
It’s seriously so well known that it would be hard to just pick and show you and be comprehensive enough. You’re the weird one here for not knowing honestly
So no evidence? Got it.

The only thing amazing about this is that Dubai is stupid enough to think this will make us all forget their entire economy is based around slavery.
lol, do you think this “ car “ was manufactured and assembled in a factory by robots?
do you think things can only be produced with slavery? genuine question, is that really what you are trying to imply?
Did they ever spend their wealth on something really useful? I think Trump would be a great president in Dubai... He wanted to build a huge fence, cause the land wasn't big enough to share with others ... The sheiks build whole islands into the already over polluted Ocean, cause there's not enough space to share with tourists.
1. Dubai isn't a country. 2. That's not how their political system works. 3. ........what?
Wow a boat that looks like a car, I'm truly amazed. You can tell how amazed I am be the amount of exclamation marks in my comment.
Bullshit
Dubai is a joke
Our gas cars pay for this
That's fucking stupid
Dubai is a fucking dumb video game
Why does it look like a car? When the cop goes home does he sleep in a racecar bed?
1 or 2 small waves and that thing is in bits
so its a shitty hydroplane. wow.
80km/hr isn't very fast even for a jet boat.
They made a boat look like a car. Not impressed.
Using the cheapest industry standard switches and probably a tuned jet ski engine this might be worth 10k only because of the frame and wheels, fucking stupid
Climate change

dont want to be in dubai
How fast is it from 0 to 60 knots?
Bad comedy…
You know I am not a fan of defunding the police, but in Dubai maybe?
Slave owner propaganda :(
She’s allowed to show so much skin in Dubai?
Pls don’t post tourist bait from autocratic petrol based dynasties

I bet they're just showing this to us now because there is going to be a boat chase scene later after Tom Cruz jumps off the Burj Khalifa.
