    I really did not care about this trial at all and do not know much about it but this was an interesting read.

    seeing countless TikTok videos of weird reaching conspiracies making Heard seem like a stupid liar and Depp the cool innocent guy just turned me off from ever wanting to actually follow the trial

    Until last week I was under the impression that Johnny Depp was MeToo-ing Amber Heard, and the trial was about that, not defamation. Whoever was doing PR for Depp deserves a pay raise, because the obfuscation of this trial's purpose was incredible.

    It's weird because the vast majority of Depp's supporters I know irl are [queer] women? I don't think I know any Heard supporters outside of terminally-online lefty spaces.

    Now actually reading up on everything, the verdict is a massive slap in the face to free speech, and making the discourse around this trial about who's "side" you're on was a massive fucking mistake.

    Thanks, Johnny. You were so poor that I’m glad you got money. Truly worth it.

    The only person on my Facebook that has been cackling with glee over the trial is the same person who claims that hate speech can’t be defined and people should be able to say anything they want. But talking about being abused without naming anyone? She will post every meme about Amber that she can fine. The same person claims if they go for the 2a she will March, gun in hand, to stop it.

    truly fucked.

    Yea you know, when the standard grieving time is over. It’s not that long. Just until they die. But oops! People will be grieving that, man, we gotta wait longer to explain. It’s a shame!

    My friend sent a message to me right after the verdict about how happy he was and I said "I literally couldn't care less about that shit" and he said I should because this is a huge case for men who are abused. lol.

    I didn’t follow anything on this trial but based off the people I see “celebrating” Depp on social media tells me exactly what I need to know.

    Literally the only thing I know about that trial is her dog stepped on a bee, and she maybe took a shit in the bed, and Depp is a drug addled guy who might have hit her.

    All that strictly from memes
