There's inequality and inequality. Dubai seems at the extreme of inequality, corruption, and ostentatiousness of the few ultra-rich. Also an extreme caste system with very few citizens (about 92% of Dubai is non-citizens, and you cannot obtain citizenship either as far as I know: you're born into it). It's a luxurious place built on the labor and exploitation of a second-class of people that can never become citizens, by design. It's not "just human nature" that "nobody can change". Being "condescending" against the ultra-rich is not something that should make anyone lose their sleep. It's punching up, not down. |
