Again, that audio was an edited part of a much longer conversation. Look it up. That was clearly manipulation by Depp's team. |
Because all that proves is Amber Heard is not a "perfect victim." This case is about whether he in fact abused her, and it's quite clear he did. But apparently a small group of sexist harpies feel her injuries were not severe enough. Because what's a few bruises, injured nose, busted lip, and repeatedly being screamed at and called a c*nt? I mean she didn't need to go to the HOSPITAL after all. |
Because this is a defamation action and we’ve had 135 pages of women just like you saying, ok ok ok ok ok he MAYBE threatened her (sworn to by third parties) or wrote abusive messages (sworn to by third parties) and that’s what the op-ed at issue discussed (abuse) BUT she isn’t a pure victim so therefore...profit. Do you truly not see how irrational you are? The cause of action is narrow: was he defamed? She has substantiated abuse - how do none of you sick women saying ‘Buh buh buh it was toxic and women lie like they breathe and I don’t care that her former partner defends Heard against ‘prior abuser’ lies Amber is impure!’ NOT understand that your hot takes are not germane to defamation? I wish Jeff could provide accurate analysis about the number of Depp-loving crazypants posters, where they’re likely to live, average age, marital status. I don’t see how anyone can live a life within certain basic norms and still fall for his shit. Damn. |
Hurling the word "liar" around is like using the word "racist" nowadays. Anytime someone sees something different than you do, they're "A LIAR"!! It was alleged during the trial that AH through a phone at JD, which resulted in the end of his finger being cut off. How does repeating this (whether you believe the testimony or not) make PP a LIAR? |
You are a liar because the post indicates that its something like verifiable truth that Heard cut off his finger. That is utterly false. The sworn testimony from his doctor is that Depp told him he did it. The rest of your illiterate invective is beneath me in terms of a response. |
Yes, the perfect victim fallacy is very tough for women to overcome, exactly why so many women don't come forward with their stories of abuse. |

But it's okay for AH to call him these names, right? She can mock his age, weight, career status, fatherhood, alcohol abuse, drug addiction...tell him to suck her d###.....these should all be okay because he's a male, right? This is what I don't get. I'm supposed to be on AH's team because I, too, possess a uterus? I've followed the trial, I've listened to the testimony, and I actually went into this with an open mind. I've never watched JD movies, and haven't ever been into him or followed his career. He sounds like a drunk and a drug addict. But this trial isn't about how sweet he is or isn't. The evidence as presented has shown that SHE was abusive and while he likely was too, much of what I've heard from his team is that he spent a good deal of time hiding in bathrooms and trying to get away from her, while she's sitting there alleging all kinds of DV with no real evidence of injury. NO medical reports, police reports, even photos of swollen noses? She could take all those photos of him passed out, photos of broken things, stuff scribbled on mirrors, etc. But she never took a clear photo of her swollen nose and the subsequent black eyes from it? Makeup artists are putting makeup on her the next morning and saying they saw NOTHING on her face? She's just not believable, simply because she claims she is. There must be some burden of proof, even with DV. Often times, the burden of proof reveals itself during the police response or medical report. Or the actual broken nose in the morning. In this case, there are none. So, yeah, I'm not on JD's team necessarily, because I think they're both nuts. I'm just not on her side and question why I should be expected to be just because she's claiming DV -- with no real proof. I'm so over this whole MeToo movement notion that as long as a woman claims harassment or DV, she is to be believed. Careers, reputations, etc can and should be ruined because the woman is to be believed at all costs. This trial isn't about personalities, or even drug and alcohol abuse. It's about whether or not her allegation of being a DV survivor are true in light of the impact those allegations have made to his career. |
Exactly. Spot on. |
Defamation. It’s about defamation and he brought the action. “She also is not my cup of tea” doesn’t cut it. By “it” I mean, it’s irrelevant to his claim and her counterclaim, and you fail yet again in trying to come across as having a balanced, reasoned take. Poor thing. |
It is baffling that it is not the abused's finger that was cut off... who is the abuser here? |
| It is stunning how many multi paragraph screeds are written by “fellow uterus havers” who think Heard saying “suck my dick” means he was defamed. How do you ladies manage life? |
People can't cope with the fact that they participated in the public harassment of an abuse victim so they double down. Heard's expert witnesses are literally showing how they hired bots to harass her. |
If a woman was killed by strangulation, do you think her murderer’s defense should be “excuse me excuse me I don’t mean to ask the tough questions but why wasn’t she also shot? Doesn’t that make me innocent?” |
Strikes a cord with me because my STBX used to threaten me with violence on top of horrible verbal and emotional abuse. When I shared it with his family, including recordings, their response was, “Well, he didn’t actually cut you I to pieces and feed you to the dog”. I was labeled “hysterical”, “dramatic”, and they’ve accused me of trying to tear their family apart. And if he had killed me they would have likely blamed me - “She didn’t leave when he threatened her.” Interestingly, it’s the women in his family - mom and sister - who are the most vicious. His father has expressed his sympathy and been really kind and apologetic. You cannot win as a woman abuse victim. Period. This case is. Sad reminder of it. |
