I think the old guys constantly dating the younger women is gross, but as long as they’re all adults it’s a legal kind of gross. I didn’t watch any social media coverage of the trial; my wife watched pretty much all of it and summarized it for me in the evenings, sometimes showing me interesting parts. I saw Depp saying some shitty things, but didn’t see him committing purgery or being overly abusive as Heard clearly did/was. I just don’t see them as equivalent.

The texts he sent, detailing how he wanted to rape, murder and dispose of her body were too far for me. That’s not a sane man, no matter what she did to him. And if you look through the whole thing, even though she was worse and lost the case, he was also abusive and drunk/high. Both fed off each other’s toxicity till it blew up. He had great PR though, and the backing of the men’s right types, so he got away fairly clean.
