Maybe don’t claim their product is killing people because it’s a little too sweet for your taste…?
Okoli responded: “Help me advise your brother to stop ki***ing people with his product, yesterday was my first time of using and it’s pure sugar.”
Yeah that’s not gonna go over well anywhere, even the USA. Especially being a business owner….
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 😆
Hahaha wow! That’s your comment about this? Incredible!!!
Sure, if someone writes something on the internet that some business owner somewhere doesn’t like, lets just torture them. Makes total sense!
In case you are actually this dumb: Her comment was a so called hyperbole. People like using these, often for humor reasons, especially on the internet and sometimes they are used to clarify something that’s actually subtle. Nobody reading that comment actually thinks that she seriously means people would get killed by that stuff. And if they would, she should still be allowed to express what she thinks on the internet.
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.
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:
Describe what you mean by “freedom of speech” here, I’m assuming you don’t mean the first amendment because that only applies in the US and only for protection against congress ( the US congress ofc ).
Given the above I’m not sure what line you mean here, libel/slander?
You can only point out facts that exist, well, you can technically point out whatever you like and call it “fact” i suppose, but it’s not really accurate unless it’s an actual fact.
Unless accuracy isn’t what you were going for ?
In case you were wondering : https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/fact
It’s hyperbole. If you want that to be illegal I’d be hanged for how hyperbolic I am.
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.
