As a female survivor of abuse, well done Johnny Depp. The “this will hurt women” narrative is stupid. This will help ALL survivors get listened to. Unless u are someone who makes false accusations against people ans tries to get away with it, u have nothing to fear by amber loosing.

[@marcodallolio9746]

From an ethical point of view, you are right. But that's not the conceptual framework that narrative is couched in. It's not about justice towards individuals, nor compassion, it's about the balance of power between genders. And from that pov, this will hurt women. Power is a zero-sum game, it's purely adversarial. If a man wins, women lose

[@fluffy_magnus]

no, this will hurt women, but in a way that now some men will use this case as justification that women lie and ur normal non billionaire women won't be able to win their own cases. Even now ppl started supporting Shia LaBeouf even tho he himself admitted to abusing his partner. this case only set us back. No one believes women like y'all think they do.

It's upsetting, and yes it is harmful. Unfortunately a lot of people, especially the more incel type, will use this to prove that all women are evil, which is just an awful stigmatization in the first place, and it hurts everyone equally.

[@psychicbyinternet]

I don't think it is. I think it shows that we need to wait before jumping to conclusions. Innocent until proven guilty, whether it's a man or a woman. I think this is a good moment for male victims and a bad moment for toxic masculinity because now that a manly movie star has shown publicly that he can be abused by a woman, hopefully people will change their perceptions about men. They can cry, they can be abused, they can be sexually assaulted and no, they don't have to man up and take it and hide their emotions and their pain.

[@indya2762]

I completely agree with you on it makes things harder for women. I have friends who are victims of DV and seeing this whole case was just terrifying for them. Because of her, survivors who come forward must now bare the implications attached to the verdict that women who come forward against powerful men may not only not be believed, but actively punished. Now, survivors will be much more reluctant to come forth about their instances of abuse out of fear of being humiliated and receiving intense backlash. Some, not all, but some men will really take any opportunity to shame a woman and call her a liar. It’s truly horrible.

I’m glad you brought up how bad the whole “they were both abusers, just as awful as each other” take is. I feel like that sort of thinking is still rooted in the idea that men cannot just be victims and that they obviously must have done something horrible too in order to invite abuse onto themselves. Like people can’t fathom how a man could possibly be abused without doing something to provoke or encourage it.

[@goranpersson7726]

funny thing is that they literally can not both be abusers, atleast not towards each other. the whole thing about abuse is an inbalance of power and control in a relationship. if one is an abuser that is the one who has more power and control in the relationship therefor making the other one not able to be an abuser since they can not both have more control than the other in the relationship

For real. Men can be abused and need to be able to speak up as well. If there's any loss for women it's because of Amber's lies and taking advantage of a movement meant to bring abuse to light, not because of her losing. Her lies are a huge slap in the face to women survivors and because of her it could make it more difficult for them to speak up without fear or scrutiny. But at the end of the day I personally see this as a victory for MeToo: a victim of abuse was able to stand up against their abuser and prove to the world how awful they are. That's what the main takeaway from this should be

Because many bad people use MeToo as a weapon and a shield. The verdict is only bad for bad people, for people who would lie about this sort of thing. It is good for everyone else, for all victims, and for all those who support victims.

[@i3yaz]

It shouldn't be a loss for MeToo but a gain. It should break the gender bias when it comes to men survivors of dv. We should celebrate that but people say it's a loss because Amber Heard declared herself the figure head of the movement. I don't know any of you but I don't think someone admitting psychical violence should be the head of MeToo. On top of that from a PR perspective the self declared figure head of MeToo turning out to be a liar and an abuser does create a ground for reactionary people to call every women coming forward with such claims a liar from the get go.

I'm glad this was televised. The people who cared about the trial and the outcome could all see the evidence for themselves to form an opinion. I wasn't completely unbiased at the start, but I like to think I was willing to change my mind according to the evidence presented. We at least saw the same information the jury saw, so it's normal we sided with Johnny as the trial continued. Suddenly, there was a mountain of evidence, not proving AH was abused, but proving Johnny was. Yes, sometimes a victim won't have much photos, videos or recordings proving they were abused. But she did record and photographed A LOT, so in this case, it was unbelievable she wouldn't have evidence of her abuse. And then, the only abuse photos she had turned to be fake or shady. This isn't a step-back for women. This is a huge win for victims and I hope men see this as a good sign: people CAN believe a man is a victim of DV, you CAN come out with your story, you WILL be heard (pun not intended).

@@Lycaon1765 I don't care if that impacted women or not at all , men always get the short end of the stick in court. and women do have more control in the relationship most of the time since they can accuse anyone of SA anytime. and could get the other person arrested regardless of whether the claim was correct or not. this is not equality. for equality to be possible a side has to compromise. if you consider this a loss for women then that's fine , the impact of this trial is not as strong as you think it is. people will still believe women regardless of evidence when it comes to these claims. which I think is not fair and is why everyone regardless of gender should prepare evidence if they're expecting something like this , malicious people will do anything to try to ruin your life.
