Perhaps the most upsetting part of the trial wasn't even the verdict; but the backlash to Heard, which has shown abuse victims everywhere just how cruel the court of public opinion can be. amberheard johnnydepp metoo mentoo
If you’ve been on the Internet at all in the past few weeks, you’ve probably been exposed, maybe unwillingly, to the Depp v. Heard trial. It was more intoxicating than fiction, and streaming free on YouTube! Despite what the fancams and the conspiracies will have you believe, this wasn’t the story of a hero conquering his tormentor; it was a trial about a woman who spoke out about domestic abuse, and the vilification she received as a result.
1. In a Twitter thread, user @kattenbarge critiques the media response to Depp v. Heard. She argues that in not actually reviewing and summarizing the trial’s evidence, journalists have allowed social media to control the narrative. The content on places like YouTube and TikTok grossly overanalyzes Heard’s movements, spins her words to make her look worse, and mocks her, because that’s what gets clicks. As @kattenbarge warns, “even if Amber isn’t a victim, this behavior hurts victims.
7. In this article in Rolling Stone, EJ Dickson interviews domestic abuse survivors to discover what their opinions on the trial are, and details the fear that many of them have experienced after watching Heard be publicly humiliated. The survivors describe threats from their abusers, that they would be humiliated publicly if they ever came forward; then they had to watch a real life manifestation of that.
