the point people are making is to educate those who blindly go to countries without understanding what goes on there
Yes and the point we are making is that you are completely arbitrary in how you choose to do this, focusing for some utterly bizarre reason almost exclusively on Dubai and ignoring many other places where human rights abuses and questionable cultural practices also occur. A bit of consistency wouldn't be a bad thing.
But if it's education you want the thickos to have, let's start with Borneo. For those who don't know, Borneo is the large island that encapsulates the tiny Islamic kingdom of Brunei which is the richest country in the world per capita and is surrounded by people who are often living in absolute grinding poverty. It has just reinstated death by stoning for homosexuality and adultery, so that's nice. There is a visible western expat community there too, because of the oil industry. They also have cheap, full time help around the house that they never afford or aspire to at home, and swimming pools in their gardens too. But no-one gives them spiteful monikers like Sarawak Suzie. There is no sneery equivalent of Jumeirah Jane, for some odd reason.
Borneo has an FGM rate of over 90% carried out on frightened little girls in very rudimentary, unsanitary conditions with no anaesthetic, but no-one on MN seems to care about that. Okay, actually they probably do, care. But they don't feel the need to jump onto travel threads about Borneo to bang on about it, because orang-utans! Waterfalls! Cute, shoeless poor people! Yay! That's a proper middle class travel experience where you can fully immerse yourself in the culture, that is.
Most of the orang-utans get burnt alive in the deforestation for palm oil production by the way, which is truly dreadful for the environment as well as for the orang-utans, but again, let's not bother to point that out on all the threads where people express an interest in going there.
Plus, what Borneo definitely has over Dubai is its soul. Let's celebrate its soul. You can have plenty of those 'look at how great I am getting down with the peasants' as you share rice in a banana leaf with the cute poor people and you can put it all on Instagram.
There aren't really any cute poor people in Dubai. The locals are pretty much all rich and are not clamouring to share their rice and be in your selfies in the hope of a small tip which will feed their family for a week, so of course it's much easier to hate them. How dare they not make you feel better about yourself? Fifty years ago they were living in tents and riding camels. The nasty little upstarts. Who do they think they are?
