7-8 years ago. I was a lot more naive back then and knew very little about any of the Middle East petro states.

Someone shares an insightful story that others can learn from and your first thought is to shame them, and then without knowing the first thing about them or what else they've done with their life, you tell them the best way to atone for their sins?

This thread is such a great opportunity for learning and curiosity and yet you choose to see it only as an opportunity for moral grandstanding, possibly scaring away other people with interesting stories to tell. Why are you on this website?

> IMHO it'd be nice if you donated some of your earnings to a human rights focused NGO operating in the area.

Is there somehow a difference in impact depending on who does this? Maybe if you chipped in, the Qatar slave workers would be even better off. Or is this just about guilt-tripping strangers for their past? :-)

That’s quite condescending.

If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all.
