Carla Galeote has been one of the content creators who is most involved in giving her opinion on social issues for years. And she has managed to add more than half a million followers on social networks thanks to her activist publications, focused, above all, on feminism. “I complain and talk regarding politics,” she defines herself in her description.
In her videos it is common to see how she exposes situations of harassment or vindicates women’s rights. So much so, that at the Idol Awards she decided to go with a suit whose jacket might read the names of the women murdered in Spain. However, the TikToker has been involved in a controversy that might be very expensive.
The influencer did not hesitate to publish a video on her networks in which her neighbor appeared masturbating. “I went out to the balcony of my house for the first time and the 70-year-old neighbor, when he saw me, undressed in front of me and, while he was looking at me, he was touching himself. What is happening to the gentlemen of this country?” , he assured.
“The worst thing of all is that I reacted 15 minutes later because I mightn’t be astonished at what I was seeing. I was on the balcony, staring at him and making gestures, and the guy continued. I backed away, I went inside the apartment , to the next room, which is the same window, and the guy continued…”, he added. After calling his attention, the man did nothing other than apologize, assuring that “it will not happen once more.”
Carla Galeote might face a crime of “serious insults”
A publication that the TikTok platform removed a few minutes later and that generated thousands of comments on X (Twitter). “My people, I have not deleted anything, the platform has taken it away from me. I have half of Twitter insulting me. I am a trending topic. I invite everyone to gossip regarding the insults and memes, they are highly funny and original,” he published shortly following .
After this, he assured that he called the Police and agreed with them. However, it has now come to light that it might have judicial consequences. And the man is “perfectly identifiable” in the images, something that might constitute a crime of “serious insults”, as lawyer Emilia Zaballos has revealed for Confilegal.
“He may face threats, insults… he may lose his job, or his partner may leave him. These are damages that must be proven if a complaint is filed,” he continued. Something that the lawyer sees as more serious considering that Carla Galeote “has gained followers” following this public complaint.
Recording a video “without consent” doing “a very intimate act” and, above all, “inside a home” might lead the man in question to file a lawsuit once morest him. Even so, if one thing is certain, it is that the activist will continue to claim through her social networks despite the consequences.
