Re: Johnny Depp

[(Anonymous)]

How do you know that it's a case of "an abused person lashing out at their abuser" and how do you know which is which?

Re: Johnny Depp

[(Anonymous)]

Well that's the point: While it remains to be seen, you have a lot of people who really badly want to believe in "she is still the true victim because she just retaliated" despite her being the one with a history of abusive behaviour in a relationship and they did/will not fall all over themselves to give Depp the same benefit of the doubt.

I mean, what does that actually signify? I am sure that there are all kinds of people jumping to all kinds of conclusions for all kinds of reasons. I don't know what differentiates your example from, for instance, someone jumping to the conclusion that Heard was the one in the wrong because they're a huge Johnny Depp fan. That's just as wrong and I'm sure some people are doing exactly that.

Re: Johnny Depp

One is a matter of fan-worship gone too far, which may be iffy but still more of an individual issue. The other is the systemic ignorance towards male victims of domestic violence and the assumption that women in an abusive situation are always the victims.

Re: Johnny Depp

[(Anonymous)]

I think, actually, that both are systemic issues. I think that even if we as a society are capable of acknowledging the theoretical possibility of domestic violence towards women, we're still bad at actually dealing with it, and that's especially true in cases where the perpetrator has a significant fan base or entrenched power of some kind. And you will certainly find people who refuse to believe in it and think that all women are lying bitches.
