In Tijuana, Mexico, a man appeared tied to a tree with a sign hanging from him that read “for being unfaithful”. No one knows how long he was left there on display before someone alerted the authorities. 🫣
Security guards arrived at the scene and freed him, while neighbors and onlookers recorded the scene without intervening. The video went viral and unleashed a wave of comments that, far from condemning what happened, celebrated it as a deserved punishment.
Among the reactions are those who speak of violence and violated rights, and those who are asking for this kind of “tutorial” to be repeated. The question that remains hanging in the air is uncomfortable: to what extent can a community take justice into its own hands without anyone saying enough?
