A Nigerian woman who wrote an online review of a can of tomato puree is facing imprisonment after its manufacturer accused her of making a “malicious allegation” that damaged its business.
Nope, not white people. Wealthy colonialists and those who cheer them on. Lately the CPC is joining in on that racket if you prefer your world delineated by race.
Yea, it did. In most countries if you threaten to sue someone for something like this the judge would just laugh you out if the court room. What Nintendo did was threaten them with a lengthy legal battle they had no means to pay for and the options were to just shut down and declare bankruptcy or have Nintendo drain their funds and then declare bancruptcy. There was no other outcome because of how the US system of you can sue anyone for anything works.
According to the article the conditions in the jail were just deplorable to the point of being torture which is also common in the US. So that’s also comparable.
She’s a person in a position of power due to being a business owner and her followers, just like anyone else in that position, they should know better and are held to higher standard.
She fucked up and would be sued anywhere in the world for her remarks, sorry for pointing out facts ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ shits not free speech when you are in some positions, she crossed that line:
McDonalds kills people every day with unhealthy foods. No joke, no hyperbole pure murder. Kills them due to thier greed. I live in the US. Do you think I should be scared 😆
Except this is hyperbole. People can live 80 years off eating McDonald’s and others die by eating healthy organic foods in their 50s. McDonald’s is a byproduct of the culture. It doesn’t kill people so much as their lifestyle kills them.
Holy shit, fuck Nigeria. Can we freedom them next? Sounds like they actually need it, but there’s probably no oil to be had.
There’s shittons of oil in Nigeria, and most of it is being siphoned off by multinational oil companies.
No need to invade if you can just get the corrupt government you’re propping up to sell it to you cheap in the first place.
Dutch person here, fuck Shell.
They have a lot of rich but unfortunate princes though, so there must be something to sustain all the royalty trying to give me their money.
I don’t know how to tell you this, but these situations are created by “freedoming” countries. This is neo-colonialism in action.
Anything bad that ever happens is because of white people

As far as large corporations being able to sue you and get the cops to harass you the US may actually be worse.
Jesus fucking christ always this comment 🙄
“Well in the US they put a lady on the rack for reviewing a song in spotify. It’s not true but it’s true because I know it!”
Nintendo literally shut down a company last month for developing an emulator for the switch just by having more money.
Nintendo is a Japanese company. They settled out of court. The US legal system did not get involved…

Yeah and we are talking about a woman being TORTURED in Nigeria.
Not sure how you can think Nintendo suing someone is comparable to this.
According to the article the conditions in the jail were just deplorable to the point of being torture which is also common in the US. So that’s also comparable.
Really? I haven’t heard of that. Where have you heard of jail cells with water across the whole floor and no furniture?
If you can provide evidence, I’ll change my mind.
The US literally has the Guatanamo Bay concentration camp for political prisoners so they could legally torture them.
If you want something more domestic then I’m sure one of those had some water or furniture related death: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-jails-deaths/ Though from what I understand in the US death by cop is the most likely.
Maybe don’t claim their product is killing people because it’s a little too sweet for your taste…?
Yeah that’s not gonna go over well anywhere, even the USA. Especially being a business owner….
It’s hyperbole. If you want that to be illegal I’d be hanged for how hyperbolic I am.
Hey hey let’s keep it accurate here. Nobody’s talking about executing her.
So far they’ve only intimidated, tortured, and [reading between the lines with the twelve hour surprise police visit to her home] possibly raped her.
It’s not hyperbole when you are business owner and/or a large following of people who can sway things.
Kind of like police taking advantage of their power and being held to different standards than the general public……
Yeah this shits not hyperbole and she would be sued in the States too, sorry, this isn’t freedom of speech by any stretch here.
Bruh.
She shouldn’t have been so melodramatic, but she also shouldn’t have been arrested for being melodramatic.
She’s a person in a position of power due to being a business owner and her followers, just like anyone else in that position, they should know better and are held to higher standard.

Yes but only because you live in America.
