No matter what you think of Dubai, this is cruel.

I think this is hilarious. People who help enable such a terrible country and actively promote it don’t get any sympathy. I’ll save that for the slaves unable to leave.

My schadenfreude does not extend to this type of suffering.

Go to the regional subreddits. They're dominated by expats, and I bet you'll rediscover your sense of schadenfreude right quick.

You were right I found it back for the pets these "expat" are letting behind.

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

These people had no problem living in a slave city or abandoning their pets to die of thirst, as exemplified by that post.

Which proves my point...

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 3 points 1 week ago

Ho boy... I though you were defending them... My bad

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You right, can you link me to the reddit where the slaves used to build and maintain Dubai are speaking about their evacuations ?

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's my point.....

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't understand, that was sarcasm ?

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

No, I'm saying they're pieces of shit who chose to live in a slave city, and have no problem abandoning their pets.

So no matter how many bombs fall, I will never feel sorry for those expats.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 1 points 1 week ago

Same. My bad, I misunderstood you.

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How?

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This endangers civilians.
