Mohammad bin Salman was designated as Saudi Arabia's new crown prince in June 2017. Since then, he has rapidly consolidated power and led Saudi Arabia towards some progressive reforms, such as granting women the right to drive. He also has plans to privatize certain segments of the economy, with the goal of reducing Saudi Arabia's economic dependency on oil. These changes, along with a suppression of Saudi Arabia's religious Right, could potentially begin to destabilize one of the Middle East's most powerful nations.

[@shathaata7345]

Arabs in general come from tribes and when you are part of tribe expect having thousands of cousins I'm from a typical Saudi family w/tons of cousins . The royal Saudi family (House of Saud) is part of a tribe called Eenzah so that's why .

[@LeechUFC]

I just dont get why they’re painting his reforms and industry changes as a bad thing. The changes he’s making are NECESSARY changes. When oil prices globally are tanking and your economy relies almost entirely on one commodity then your country lives and dies with it. The changes will slow the economy from the start but by diversifying, the economy is safe in the long run. It’s the same reason why Ontario in Canada is shifting from manufacturing which once held up its entire economy, to the knowledge sector as manufacturing has tanked in Canada.

TO PUT IT SIMPLY the kingship goes directly not to the oldest but to the fittest of the Founders ( ibn Saud ) Sons from Arabian tribal mothers in the first ruling generation, knowing that all the kings before had a older brother and did not request to be king preferring a status of prince with all the money and time in the world to enjoy it .. you have to understand that being a king is not fun at all you have a responsibility far heavier than any other as king of arabia ( leading virtually over 1.5 bn muslims ) usually the king is chosen ( the fittest to rule ) by the current king after taking lead from the previous one and endorses a crown prince from his brothers and half brothers ( fitting the criteria ) to the senior heads of family Council then every one cast a vote either yes or no if not agreed upon a crown prince they vote on others to be CP .. and so on coming to Generation 2 ( grandsons of ibn Saud ) they must be a decedent for the founder and a son of a previous king or fit for the position , if the current king of the choses to transfer the ruling to this generation with the (senior heads of family Council approval) than he must endorse a son of his or a son of a brother or a grand son if he sees him fit .. then the voting upon then must be held and so on . its really simple its an internal family endorsement / voting system called ( البيعة )

After all, we need to give the man some time, as I think that he will turn Saudi to a better place, Hopefully.

To every western viewer, Hi, I appreciate your interest in Saudi Arabia. One thing you should realize before scrolling down in the comments is that there are many paid missionaries that their only job is to create multiple accounts to support and polish the picture of the government, or as you like to call it propaganda. It's a well-known fact that no one would talk about, and if you asked a Saudi guy he would reject it, even though he knows it. Acknowledging it is really dangerous, it is a taboo. Not to forget that on the other hand, there are paid missionaries that are hired to destroy the picture too, like an anti-propaganda. One thing to keep in mind, 90% of the Saudis do support the government, even if they disagreed here and there, we support them for the greater good, because we believe they are what help us stand. Yes, nothing is perfect, but improvement is always welcomed.

Iranian here! I don't know what's wrong with liberals in the US. they critic Saudis 24/7 and when they try to modernize you guys bash them even harder. that's the same thing that Carter did to Iran back in 79. Middle east is a region which never has experienced what you had in Europe, people here are mostly religious and that's why whenever you give democracy to them they will instantly choose a religious party or candidate like in Egypt. you have to first educate people culturally then give them a full freedom, otherwise they will choose a radical leader which would produce even more radicalized population, Iranians nowadays are more secular than neighbour countries and that's only true thanks to late Shah. if the Saudis prince comes out a winner, he will be remembered like what Turk nationals see Ataturk but I doubt that's gonna happen since the average saudi is very religious compared to Iranians or Turks.

[@monsG165]

So true, they just cant understand that democracy cannot coexist with religious extremist! The Saudi police arrested Salman Al-Oduh a cleric that is as dangerous as the Ayotallah, and now HRW is demanding his release! These westerns just dont learn from their own stupid mistakes.

Saudi here, I appreciate your comment, just wanted to mention that most Saudis are not religious. They follow Islam and they are passionate about Islam but not so many of them are religious or extremists. Religious figures however have more power over influence; they can influence mass people in no time; this is why I agree with you that democracy cannot work in Saudi Arabia.

[@yasyashushus]

I live in Bahrain, literally Saudi’s little itty bitty neighbor, and we hear a lot about our huge neighbor.

Fidel Castro did good things, like healthcare and education, but he also took away a lot of political freedoms, like freedom of speech and information. There were no democratic rights whatsoever. Homosexuality was criminalized. There's also mass surveillance and arbitrary detention. Don't get me wrong, there are worse countries, many of which the USA deals with, but the idea that it's some leftist paradise is absurd, and the idea that the US is worse off kind of lacks perspective. Yeah, things are bad, but the fact that you can even type that out in a youtube comment puts you a whole leg up from cuba in terms of political freedom

Disclaimer** I'm in no way attacking nor defending however I must point out some clear biases and unforgivable inaccuracies in this here report. I understand that Vox is run by Vox media a known (liberal) left media source. Despite it being praised for its mostly factual reporting, I cannot help but feel the bias not only in the report but in said praise. I also understand that the audience targeted are mainly U.S. citizens however as any internet user would tell you "the world is a living room now" and the people whom the subject matter is about will find such content and can as surly and accurately confirm or deny any information in it and if any bias or misinformation is found and confirmed to "your" audience that will undoubtedly affect your credibility. That being said here is my humble editorial as a citizen of the middle east: 0:26 stating that the crown prince is "being forced" is a baseless claim that is simply inferred from the political climate 0:32 why is age being put to question here? 0:48 as the comment section below would testify, he is NOT known in Saudi Arabia as "Mr. everything" 2:16 using an image of an armed police man when referring to the "religious police" is misleading because the religious police are never armed and their official attire is informal (the arab thoub) 2:38 "the vast religious establishment" **a lot to unpack here** 1- using a derogatory slur (wahhabi): a derogatory term aimed at conservative Islamic clerics coined by those who follow the shia sect an often antagonist to the conservatives. 2- clumping images of religious Saudi Islamic clerics with opposing views under a caption that misrepresents both their political and religious views 2:51 "enforce their uncompromising puritanical version of Islam". The one in the middle of the image is Dr. Salman Al-Odah known for his liberal Islamic views and opposing political views for which he was arrested and jailed most recently in September of 2017 and finally, calling the crown prince "MBS", as convenient as that may be, it kinda comes off dismissive and disrespectful.
