Well, we can't deny that the silencing the opposition (like wokists) help to maintain a slavery society. So both are actually right. But one is a shitty fascist

The lack of wokeness in Dubai may be one of the condition for it's slavery system to exist. Both actors are reading the event from their point of view: a woke one, and a fascist one

Its like a stage magician saying, "I do magic" and they get mad if some yells out how they do the trick.

Hey, that's unfair to magicians. The whole point of stage magic is that you are purposefully suspending disbelief in order to enjoy an entertainment show. Of course magic isn't real, the magician knows it, everyone in the audience knows it. That's not the point. The point is to relive childhood wonder via escapism. At the end of the day, what the magician does on the stage takes time, practice, dedication, skill, knowledge, showmanship and ingenuity to pull off properly. All feats to be celebrated and admired. Screaming how the trick is done ruins the experience for yourself, the magician and the entire audience. Like cheating at board games, or heckling a comedian, it's a bad faith transgression into the social contract of a show.

What this POS refers to in Dubai is causing human suffering at a massive scale, it's not an well meaning or heartfelt illusion. Calling it out is a protest. It's not equivalent at all.
