      They were both beyond cringe, IMHO.
      In this case, MBS came in from behind with Norris completely unaware, which startled him. The look on Max’ face tells a lot about the level of awkwardness!
      Besides that, MBS is probably simply more disliked as he has done some pretty bad things in his presidency.
      This wasn’t about Arab vs European.

        If I hadn’t been seeing threads and comments all year complaining about MBS. For the simple reason as having to look at him.

        I’d maybe believe you.

        But it becomes hard to try and remove the racism when the complaint boils down to “having to look at the Arab”
