It has nothing to do with racism… the Saudis kill journalists and political opponents and have a religious government that oppresses women. They also use immigrants/migrant workers as effectively slaves.

Why would we want their influence on companies, especially things with cultural elements like media, video games, AI, etc?

All of that is going to continue in perpetuity if their economy is siloed into oil and then destroyed when they run out.

Let governments sanction them as needed, that's their job.
