These questions are almost always posed like they are mutually exclusive answers. It seems to me that it’s both sports washing and economic. All decisions come with risks and going into sports comes with risks but those risks are further reduced if Saudis put additional value in good publicity (the washing of sports washing). Additionally, the sports washing helps them bring other businesses so sports washing is not just for geopolitical reasons but economic reasons

Another interesting video, thx, Mr. Uptin. Sportswashing is obviously a mixed bag. Plenty of money for sports and spectacle can be fun and contribute to the economy, attracting tourists and investors. On the other hand, as you said, it can be used to distract from all kinds of human rights abuses, such as harsh prison sentences for relatively minor infractions. Forget about freedom of speech, there are plenty of journalists in prison who are also mistreated. Khashoggi is just the type of the iceberg. But you could also argue that the grievances in KSA are so well-documented that they are not really able to fool anyone in the Internet age. To be certain, many international stars of any kind become sellouts, pocketing huge sums and turning a blind eye to all the abuses. But the rest of the world knows exactly what's happening so - I know I'm being provocative here - perhaps it doesn't really matter that much in the long run? A mafia boss throwing money around is still a mafia boss after all. (Unlike you, I have no plans to visit KSA, so I can afford to be undiplomatic.) In any case, we're looking forward to more insightful videos from you. Best wishes!

Has this sports washing helped Saudi Arabi in the long run? I can see sports washing helping a country bury a recent incident like what Russia did in the Sochi Olympics, but long term I can see it backfire.

It's actually about tourism because look at Qatar, no one even knew that country and no one ever talked about it's human rights until they had the world cup, There was nothing for them to sport wash because no one knows them.

Please change the thumbnail Uptin bro. The Saudi flag contains the Shahadah, the testimony of faith, which is a very sacred statement for all Muslims. I’ll say their flag design is kinda problematic because these days flags are designed and depicted in many different forms and while the American Stars & Stripes on a ball might be a kitschy souvenir, the placing of those sacred words from the Saudi flag on such objects is offensive to Muslims.

KSA is of course fascinating because they spend a lot of money on luxuries and expensive buildings. Nas Daily announced that he had changed his mind on KSA, and raved about it for the full 4 min. of his recent video. Very one-sided. The problem is that a lot, perhaps even most of these grand projects are approved without a feasibility study. So they're basically doomed from the start. There are many videos pointing out, e.g., the shortcomings of NEOM/The Line. That's just not how cities work.

@@ToyTiger666 believe me having homeless citizens is just much meaner 😂. Homelessness rate in the gulf countries is close to 0%. You cant just decide which country needs to subjected to closer inspection and which countries have a pass free ticket. Every country has its own issues and as long as there are initiatives to improve those issues then the country is headed to the right way.

@abdulhameedqashqary1477 Asking questions like "who defines value" is just an evasion maneuver to avoid pertinent criticism. It is well-known that foreign workers are exploited in the Gulf States under the kafala system. For Saudi citizens, harsh prison sentences, like 20 years 4 a protest are also quite disproportionate. Many Saudis would also agree if open reporting and open criticism were allowed. In Western countries, homelessness is usually due to mental illness and drug addiction, not poverty. Authoritarian regimes have a hard time acknowledging such problems. Officially, homelessness in KSA is 0%. But unofficially, it exists, of course. Human rights activist Zac Alrayyis, e.g., writes on Quora: I'm quite shocked to see how many people here seem to think there's no homelessness in Saudi Arabia. The claim is boldly outlandish but does probably align with the state narrative. It's true that family structures and subsidized housing contribute a great deal to keeping it under control and the issue of homeless citizens specifically is not as pronounced as in most places, but just take a walk down a major street in any major Saudi city and you'll see beggars from all different backgrounds, increasingly Yemeni refugees, but Saudi citizens as well, and at night it's not hard to find people sleeping in a park or street. What they do with them depends on who they are. One could get referred to their family, be provided subsidized housing, detained, or deported in case of refugees.

There is no free speech in KSA. If you try to criticize the government for anything, they are quick to silence you. It is not beneath them to lock up and torture journalists. If you type, e.g. human rights violation in Saudi Arabia into a search engine, the Saudi government will censor the results. If you use a VPN to access blocked contents, that's illegal. Authoritarian regimes have a strong tendency to sweep all kinds of social problems and grievances under the rug. But it does not mean they don't exist.
