It was the best of the times, it was the worst of times

the rest of the world ain't gonna start bein sanitised cos of a YouTube video or a twitta campaign unless it's backed by the board of directors to achieve some bottom lined end goal hidden from NATO's mission statement
which judging by the momentum behind this video, bearing in mind I haven't watched it yet or verified it's shockocity, seems possible

Oh it's a CNN piece
not quite the grassroots movement I had imagined
this seemingly organic debate now tastes tarnished

I cant say I even believe it tbh
Also I am going to start deleting these part time activists that are popping up on my snap if they dont pipe down ffs

Certain people attitude towards the maid situ is very telling. Very telling indeed
Heartless but its absolutely no surprise. This distance and this lack of compassion for actual human beings is why the world will always be a shit hole of degradation and abuse

You need to lay off the indirects and speak your mind ma'am

Also if anything I agree with the sentiment regarding peoples attitudes, it is very telling when social media has such power to influence and manipulate, and just like the oxford street mass hysteria situation, highlights peoples vanity in seeking attention on the back of a tragedy in principal
All this fake outrage and hypocritical judgment, also playing on peoples Indignation is the real reason this world will always be a shit hole of degradation and abuse

To be honest, I agree with both of your posts. I don't have much to add on except I wanted to end my post similar to yours. I believe money and greed is the sole reason why the world will always be a shit hole of degradation and abuse

'I'm paying you so take this beating'
Wth are you on about, this is part of African culture, everyone gets a beating, at one point in time, the Mum will beat the kid same way she will beat her own, i still don't get the point.

Don't know what's difficult to grasp bro
I assume you work in this country, nah?
Then I will also assume your bossman can walk up to your desk and give a lil slap across your face because you didn't hand in a spreadsheet on time ?
Because it's culture, therefore I should tolerate that?
Maids get paid to work, not paid to take slap

If a white african beats his black maid is that calm, and just part of the culture too?

There is a difference in terms of the practicality of it
But morally?
There's absolutely no difference at all

at the very least the house girl/boy know what they are getting themselves into and really should have the option to kick if they feel like it

Exactly.
Most House Boy/Girls are often an extension of the family. In some households they get their wages paid directly to them, as expected . Some get their education paid for and other expenses paid for too.
The problem with the Housemaid thing is in palces like africa is lts not regulated, so yes, there are chances of them getting exploited.
But comparing it to the slavery we are witnessing in Libya is a stretch imo.
Lol at smacking a housemaid. Thats suicidal in Naij anyway. I have heard of maids organising armed robbers to come and clean up their employers yard.

Lol so u employ your relatives child to serve u
The child can kick it when they like?
Why not take your relative child in and fund its education without makin it your servant. Just a wild idea
