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.
