#depp v heard trial

[ancientsstudies]

"Tell the world, Johnny, tell them, 'Johnny Depp, I, a man, I'm a victim too of domestic violence' and see how many people believe or side with you."

Pretty depressing that we live in a world where far more people are willing to believe that a 24 year old woman got married to a man 25 years her senior, all so, over the course of 7 years. she could meticulously gather fake evidence of abuse (including diary entries, corroborating texts and photos), convince a bunch of witnesses to lie under oath and goad her then husband into admitting to headbutting her on tape in an elaborate Gone Girl scenario to… *checks notes* write one line in an op ed, than it is for people to believe a rich powerful man with a documented history of substance abuse and violent outbursts hit his wife.

okay people are legit writing fanfics about the depp v heard case.

regardless who is the abuser can we not write fanfics based on abuse trials like i feel like i shouldnt have to explain how disgusting that is.

this is what im talking about, johnny depp isnt a blorbo. amber heard isnt a character. the trial isnt some sort of fun court room drama its real life.

People who hopped on board with Johnny Depp and made fun of Amber Heard during the trial are seeing that the tide is turning in amber's favour and being like 'well we see now she was abused we just fell victim to a misinformation campaign it could happen to anyone' like... no <3.

I simply did not allow myself to just go along with an obvious smear campaign. I thought critically about the evidence put in front of me and used my fucking brain. Sorry if you can't relate. I simply looked at the slimy old man dragging his ex wife to court, playing audios of himself calling her a stupid fuck and saying she doesn't exist without him while giggling on the stand, and the whole arse legal case that proved he was a wifebeater back in fucking 2020, and used my basic common sense.

If you've realised all of the above recently, and are now pro amber, welcome to the club, but don't pretend that everyone on the internet was against her. There's literally someone on twitter who sent me a rape threat over me being pro amber now saying they fell victim to a smear campaign. like... you lot weren't the victims. Amber was. Y'all are the accomplices.

You know what's sick about this verdict? Bi people, particularly white Bi women, are throwing around words like Homophobia and Biphobia and Sexism as some sort of explanation as to why Amber Heard lost. I'm seeing so many bi women, who look like me, love like me, weaponizing their sexuality and gender identity against an abuse victim, because they can simply not fathom that someone like them is lying.

I see so many bi women acting as if men can not also be victims of abuse, as if the MeToo movement is just for women, as if a bi woman is not also capable of being an abuser against her male partner. It makes me sick. It makes me so sick to watch people weaponizing their sexuality, my sexuality in the defense of an abuser.

Amber Heard is an abuser and she abused the trust of the public, the trust if the MeToo movement and the trust of every single person who has survived domestic violence. She is also a bisexual woman. Those two things can and do coexist.

It is not homophobic/Biphobic/etc. to hold a member of the LGBTQ+ community responsible for their bad actions actions.

It is not sexist to hold a woman responsible for her bad actions.

Saying either of those things does nothing short of setting back equality for eveyone.

Don't come for me about hating women or being Biphobic, or whatever else. I am a Bi Woman.

i can't believe we are living in a world where these things are real

ok this is pissing me off. body language is a pseudoscience. there is no way one can become a certified "expert" in body language bc there are no fucking verified certifications for it. there are no schools or degrees for body language. there are psychology degrees, and you get a license to be a psychologist. there are law degrees, and you pass the bar exam to become a lawyer. but there is no quality regulation or standards of practice in the body language field. it's entirely subjective (based on the individual and their biases and their training that varies bc, again, there's NO FUCKING REGULATION) and highly discredited by psychologists and lawyers (you know, the actual experts) when discussing mental stability and legal culpability. the fact that so many people are claiming body language as a legitimate source and using it as a defense is making me break out in hives. it's so embarrassing for you guys please fuck off.

Important to note that Depp actively sabotaged her career while they were married. Check out this text he sent telling her she wasn’t allowed to take meetings or audition for movies. Who would support a man who talks like this?

Can't believe people are back on this

Honestly Amber baffles me.

She divorced Johnny and won a seven million dollar settlement, won the UK trial and had everyone believing the allegations against Johnny. But instead of donating the money like she said she would and moving on, she decided to write an article (an article that has officially been proven false because all the evidence is against her).

Truly the mind of a narcissist.
