Just a List of Celebs Who 'Liked' Johnny Depp’s Statement About His Defamation Trial - Jezebel

To really zero in on the list of offenders:

Ashley Benson hasn’t done anything of note in years other than get dumped by white rapper (derogatory) G-Eazy—is this really the thing she wants to do to get her name back out there?

Momoa notably “liked” both Heard and Depp’s posts, true to form as he’s a self-identified political “moderate” (ostentatious little term for “Republican”) and thus has to “both-sides” a domestic violence case in which Heard alleged that Depp at one point raped her with a liquor bottle. Cool!

Hailey Bieber—a multi-millionaire nepotism baby who routinely whines about bullying on the internet—sure doesn’t seem to think a man throwing his wife onto the floor and nearly beating the life out of her in front of his friends and staff constitutes bullying. (Speaking of bullying, perhaps it’s time to bring some of that energy back—I doubt Hadid would be bold enough to back an alleged abuser in public if we were still dragging her for that wildly embarrassing Complex video, as we should. I, for one, still think about it at least once a day!)

Some of the names on that list are especially gutting for me—but this, if anything, speaks to just how salient the media smear campaign against Heard has been. Even seemingly intelligent artists and creators who have long publicly stood with victims and survivors weren’t immune to it.For her part, Heard offered a wide range of damning evidence of this abuse that 99.99% of victims of intimate partner violence will never be able to provide. She could point to Depp’s long, extensive history of documented violence, including a 2018 lawsuit by a man who said Depp had beat him—the man was unsurprisingly spared the tried and true sexist smear campaign reserved for those who allege sexual violence. Still, apparently, this wasn’t enough to sway a jury of five men and two women, and a greater public that’s always frothing at the mouth to identify and pile onto a fully dehumanized stand-in for all women.After being caught in unfortunate lies, diagnosed with mental illness, and Depp witnesses’ testimony that she had also gotten violent with the man who was abusing her, Heard simply could not fit the rigid mold of the ever evasive “perfect victim.” And our equal-parts media-illiterate and deeply sexist society was there in a heartbeat to drag her to hell for it.I say this because you cannot for one second convince me that any of the backlash and public reaction to this trial has been about Johnny Depp’s irresistible charisma or handsomeness. He’s literally just some 60-year-old man who once played a pirate a decade ago. The public reaction isn’t about him—it’s entirely about how much our society fucking hates women.In any case, I feel very happy and safe living in a society in which a man can beat a woman within an inch of her life, then make her pay $15 million for talking about it! And now, thanks to this list, I have the added pleasure of not being able to escape this reality by watching fun little movies and TV shows which are all apparently full of abuser apologists! I love it here!
