I dont mean places that are like ragingly anticommunist (which is most places I think), but they have like appalling social issues. Say like UAE or any of the Gulf states that use slave labor and indentured servitude on a mass scale. Like would you say visiting dubai or doha is morally questionable? A friend is offering to visit Muscat cuz there are cheap flights but I dont know if I should. Or are there ways I can ameliorate my staying there, like maybe giving money to some orgs or something. Idk what do you think

    Let me think about it this way: is there any country in the world that I would be completely unwilling to visit, even once? Whose crimes are so great and so thoroughly entrenched in the culture and daily life that I would find it unethical even to willingly exist in that country eating their food and sleeping in their houses?

    Nah, I don't think so. I think I'd visit anywhere that the locals would welcome me.
