I’m truly astonished that Johnny Depp has won his defamation case against Amber Heard.
I thought the system had irrevocably decided the following: (a) “believe all women or at the very least give them the benefit of the doubt” and (b) “older white guys are generally bad news, especially the rich ones who’ve struggled with drugs.”
Is it fair to interpret this shocking verdict as some kind of seminal #MeToo setback? As in “the carte blanche era has come to an end”? Or is it just a matter of “Amber couldn’t sell it but Johnny could”? You tell me.
