"but the US and most of the western world is fine with it."
This is nonsense. Canada is literally right now in a big huff/dispute with Saudi, and issues of oppression in Saudi Arabia are a constant political issue.
Arms sales to Saudi Arabia from Western nations are always contested, always a hot topic.
Literally in the Swedish election right now - arms sales to Saudi Arabia are an issue.
Saudis can use 'most' of the internet, the country has wealth (luckily) and if they want to they can leave.
The oppression in Saudi is hugely based on super social conservative values, which many citizens, even women, actually support in many ways.
