Well good for Saudi for stand with how it should to be. Not every country should following the Western culture. Even I don't mind with LGB on games or movie with a proper story.

Is Western Culture code for "Basic Human Rights"?

Also, Japan is East.

I disagree with Saudi Arabia on most things, but at the same time I respect them for not bowing down to pressure from other societies. Who are we to dictate how they should run their country and traditions?

Saudi Arabia can do whatever they want, and we're free to criticise them for being assholes.

People with common decency?

Seriously, if your "traditions" are about discriminating against and killing people then they deserve to be criticised!

They should remove the harsh penalties (nobody deserves to be killed), but they shouldn’t have to change their entire culture over it. I am fond of preserving tradition and cultural values, as long as those traditions and values don’t threaten human life, I am okay with it.

And LGBT should be forced to change themselves? Forced to hide who they are?

Nah, there should be no penalties at all. It's basic human decency.

Those "traditions" are outdated garbage, a lot of horrible shit in human history can be called a "tradition" but we stopped doing a lot of them because we're meant to move forward as a species and not hold onto nonsense from times where people thought planets were Gods, that the Earth was flat, that women shouldn't be allowed to vote, among other crazy shit.

Shunning a group of people, treating them as lesser, does threaten them, even if it's not inherently violent, because it often leads to violence being performed against them by similar minded bigoted people, it treats them as lesser than everyone else, it takes away basic human rights from them which in turn emboldens other assholes who think there's something wrong with them.

BASED. Glory to MBS. If only we had a leader like that in Europe. Guess Viktor Orban will have to suffice...

You mean a coward and a moron?
