People Are Standing Up For Johnny Depp With These 40 Memes While Others Disagree
This week, American actor Johnny Depp lost a libel suit he filed in London, suing the newspaper The Sun for calling him a "wife beater" in one of their articles, a reference to his relationship with ex-wife Amber Heard. The case was ugly, dragging both actors' private lives into the spotlight. It was complicated, too; each accused the other of abuse.
British libel law works differently from the American version. In the US, the burden of proof for libel is on the person claiming to have been libeled — that is, the plaintiff has to demonstrate that what was written is false (at least in cases involving matters of public concern). In the UK, the burden of proof is on the party accused of libel — that is, The Sun had to prove that the things published about Depp were true. A judge held that 12 of 14 of Heard's accusations of abuse met the threshold for truth in civil court. Depp's attorneys say they plan to appeal. (Depp is also suing Heard for defamation in a U.S. court after she published an op-ed in The Washington Post identifying herself as a survivor of sexual and physical violence.)
On the Internet, it seems that Johnny Depp has a lot of people by his side. Twitter, Reddit, and other platforms are being flooded with memes, supporting the actor. There are, however, those who disagree with them.

People that lie about abuse and rape are the worst. If authorities fell for it, they destroy life of a person they lied about, but if they are caught lying, they create precedent that will be used to dimish real victims in the future. Sincerely, f*ck you.

Audio tapes prove for any real victim, anyone who knows domestic violence that she is the bully. Mocking him, taunting,him, threateting him badly, admitting to starting physical fights, calling him a coward for getting out of these situations, calling him crybaby, making fun of him when he seeks help from stuff when he gets abused by her.......these are facts, objective fact. Just like the fact the she has zero hospital papers or police papers or real photos of injuries. She went to the media instead, to appear in magazines, what do you think why? Cause they were fake injuries, and any doctor would notice that. All her injuries are unrealistic and do not match the description about how she was getting them, too many problems and evidence against them, which actually requires some brain and eyes.

A few years later, Depp and Heard married and soon divorced. In 2016, Heard filed for divorce from Depp and also obtained a temporary restraining order. Her allegations that Depp was physically and verbally abusive while using drugs and alcohol were soon widely publicized. She alleged that at the time of filing for divorce, an incident had taken place during which Depp threw his phone at her, leaving her with a bruised face. However, a police spokesman told People that an investigation into the domestic incident radio call found that no crime had taken place.
RELATED:
Depp denied the accusations against him and through his representatives said Heard was "attempting to secure a premature financial resolution by alleging abuse."
Heard testified under oath at a deposition, but she withdrew her request for a domestic violence restraining order and a settlement was reached. According to People, Heard received $7 million from the divorce but donated it to charity. She also canceled her spousal support request of $50,000 a month.
"Our relationship was intensely passionate and at times volatile, but always bound by love. Neither party has made false accusations for financial gain," Depp and Heard said in a then-released joint statement. "There was never any intent of physical or emotional harm." Their divorce was finalized a year after Heard filed.
The Hollywood Reporter said that a non-disparagement clause was inserted into the settlement that prevented either party from saying anything negative about the high-profile relationship and break-up.
In December 2018, Heard wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post saying she was abused but Depp was not mentioned by name.
In 2019, Depp sued Heard for $50 million for defamation over the article. The suit said that Heard "is not a victim of domestic abuse, she is a perpetrator," and denied that Depp ever abused her. Instead, the suit said that Heard's allegations were part of an "elaborate hoax to generate positive publicity" for the actress.
"The op-ed depended on the central premise that Ms. Heard was a domestic abuse victim and that Mr. Depp perpetrated domestic violence against her," Depp's lawyers said.
In a court filing that attempted to dismiss Depp's defamation suit, Heard recalled multiple instances of alleged abuse that she said occurred during their marriage and referred to him as "the Monster."

The word "men" isn't supposed to be capitalized. There's no such thing as "men's culture". Men aren't a distinct ethnicity or something. Just use it like normal, instead of like you're trying to get an op ed in the bible or something. Still, f**k Amber Heard.
In 2020, phone recordings obtained by the Daily Mail were released where Heard admitted to "hitting" Depp.
Heard is heard saying: "I'm sorry that I didn't ... hit you across the face in a proper slap, but I was hitting you, it was not punching you. Babe, you're not punched.
"I don't know what the motion of my actual hand was, but you're fine, I did not hurt you, I did not punch you, I was hitting you."
"I left last night. Honestly, I swear to you because I just couldn't take the idea of more physicality, more physical abuse on each other," Depp said in the recording. "Because had we continued it, it would have gotten f---ing bad. And baby, I told you this once. I'm scared to death we are a f---ing crime scene right now."
Heard responded: "I can't promise you I won't get physical again. God, I f---ing sometimes get so mad I lose it."
Sharon Osbourne has weighed in on Johnny Depp's high-profile "wife beater" trial, saying on CBS' "The Talk" that Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard were "as bad as each other" and that she could understand the pair's relationship because she once had a similar dynamic with her husband, Ozzy. Many Internet commenters also share this opinion.

It has also been proven that Judge Nichol's son works for the defendant & with the author of the story calling JD a wife beater at Talk Radio which is owned by Ruppard Murdoch who owns The Sun and Judge Nichol's wife's best friend is best friends with Amber Heard's main attorney. They even invited AH to a dinner party during the trial & Judge Nichol's also previously worked for the defendant when he was a barrister. With those, plus a couple more connections, he should of recused himself from the case just for his son currently working for the defendant alone and if you read the court documents, he told JD he believed him but believed her more; by 1% more as the outcome was 51% in favor of her.

The problem is that the judge who called Depp a wifebeater ignored the fact that Depp never was trailed or even convicted of domestic violence or assaulting Amber Heard. Instead he based his verdict on allegations that weren't proven at all. On the other hand there's more than enough evidence that Amber heard was the offensive and abusive party in the relationship. She even told Johnny Depp that she could do what she wanted because no one would believe Depp. "Go and tell the world that I, Johnny Depp, am a victim of domestic violence and see how many people believe you.". https://www.screengeek.net/2020/02/07/amber-heard-johnny-depp-full-leaked-audio-recording/

As if it wasn’t hard enough for women to come forward and accuse someone of sexual assault, people like Amber make it so much easier for sexists to dismiss us. And it is important to remember that men are abused too, but it happens so much less. I hope Johnny Depp is doing well and I hope Amber faces jail time.

And this is why men don't speak out about domestic violence. Amber Heard's actions almost mirror an ex-girlfriend of mine who used to physically attack me and then lie that the bruises she gave herself were down to me. My friends had seen her attack me and had had to physically remove/restrain her from me on occasion, but her friends and family all bought it. I left that relationship after my ribs were broken by her father (she'd previously broken my nose), no one believes that a 6'2" man can be beaten up by 5'6" woman but it happens, because men are taught not to hit women so all you can do is restrain them (which is generally how they get bruises to blame on you).

I agree with you. I think that they were very toxic and ultimately no one really knows how their relationship played out. But what is good for the goose is good for the gander.

I don't think it was ever really their choice to have it on open display, they are celebrities so it was kind of beyond their control and it opens up some discussions around abuse. Having conversations about abuse in the open makes having those conversations a lot easier and helps people in abusive relationships to find help and support.

Oh come on this is rubbish and the thing is we will never know all the facts. Making your assumptions based on internet and tabloids is rubbish. Looking at them together was cringeworthy enough, both are toxic. Both have abused substances and most probably each other. That is disgusting and sad. I am afraid that I will be looking Depp’s movies differently which is also sad because it was a big part of growing up loving Edward Scissorhands etc. Both of them have a bad rep from now on, but we all know that will pass, especially in Depp’s case because apparently women supporting women is so last season. Jeez... Any kind of violence towards others made is wrong and there should be a price to pay. There are other forms of violence too, not just physical.

I guess people don't wanna admit their heroes have flaws and just wanna forgive and forget. But I agree with you, they had an awful toxic and abusive relationship. While she was definitely abusive and probably the instigator to their big rows, I question Johnny's mental health for both getting with someone like Amber Heard (and leaving his wife for her) and getting into this toxic dynamic. I too view him differently... their weird actions with the dog thing in Australia.... all the drama now.... they are both at fault, and both need to look at themselves.

Let me say one thing. As a man who has been emotionally and mentally abused for 13 years, abuse knows no bounds. It's a means of controlling a person through some form of power over them, whether it's physical, emotional, financial, sexual, etc. You don't have to be rich or poor, or live in a certain country. It can happen to anyone, and it can sneak up on you. I didn't even realize it was happening until I was suicidal. The hardest thing to do is getting someone to listen, because so much energy is spent telling yourself the abuse "really is that bad" when you want to deny that fact. It's an exhausting thing, and it's terrifying to think about the future without them, especially when there are kids involved.

In England, the court assumes the person being sued for libel (The Sun) is lying and they have to prove they were telling the truth. You have to have evidence back up what your printed or you lose. On 12 counts, there was evidence he is abusive. Whether she beat him as well (overwhelming evidence) was not on trial, only his actions. Its like being busted for leaving your kids in a locked car in the heat and saying its ok because your wife did too. You are still a douche who risked the health of someone you claimed to love. Also, him losing his job and not her is about money, not hypocrisy. Neither was fired while it was mere accusations It was only after a court ruled he was abusive that he lost his job - the court ruling means Depp broke a moral clause in the contract. WB is doing the same thing with her right now. In their eyes she's "only" an accused abuser, not a real one yet. Don't want to risk a wrongful termination suit until you have court precedence.
Jay Dee 3 years ago
No it wasn't. He started losing work as soon as she accused him. The whole reason he went to court was that his name was being dragged through the dirt. He provided ample evidence that she was lying about the abuse (read the court documents) the judge ignored most of it and Nicols' main argument was that she wasn't a golddigger because she gave away the divorce money. He dismissed Johnny's claims that he was set up by her from the start on the back of this. Well, it turns out she has not given away the divorce money at all, she kept it. It was just more of her lies. Johnny has appealed and I hope he wins this time.

Vanessa only gave evidence that Johnny did not abuse her that does not mean that he did not hit Amber, the courts could do little with that information.

You have clearly never been abused. That is an insulting thing to say to those of us who have been in abusive relationships. Whether you meant it or not you must understand that staying involves a multitude of reasons and feelings. It’s not all about the Benjamins. There are psychological reasons, reasons of fear and safety…it’s really impossible to explain. The bottom line is that unless you have experienced something, you have absolutely no idea how you’d react and have zero qualifications to make any meaningful assessment.

Did he not look the other way when Russia put bounties on US soldiers' heads? Did he not spend 25% of his days in office golfing? Please. Let me know which ones are lies.

Whatever the truth? Getting treated unfairly and being told, "No one will believe you!" is pretty common to ALL victims of abuse of any gender, race, etc.. Ditto ridiculously unfair outcomes.

So true. Victims of childhood sexual abuse, victims of workplace abuse, victims of emotional abuse, victims of sexual assault, etc. The abusers think that they are above reproach, and try to convince their victims that no one will take them at their word.

Amber Heard was arrested in 2009 when she was beating up her former partner. Why is she allowed to continue making movies and Johnny is kicked off on unproven charges of her - a proved abuser and beater?
Penguin 322 4 years ago
It has also been proven that Judge Nichol's son works for the defendant & with the author of the story calling JD a wife beater at Talk Radio which is owned by Ruppard Murdoch who owns The Sun and Judge Nichol's wife's best friend is best friends with Amber Heard's main attorney. They even invited AH to a dinner party during the trial & Judge Nichol's also previously worked for the defendant when he was a barrister. With those, plus a couple more connections, he should of recused himself from the case just for his son currently working for the defendant alone and if you read the court documents, he told JD he believed him but believed her more; by 1% more as the outcome was 51% in favor of her.

The problem is that the judge who called Depp a wifebeater ignored the fact that Depp never was trailed or even convicted of domestic violence or assaulting Amber Heard. Instead he based his verdict on allegations that weren't proven at all. On the other hand there's more than enough evidence that Amber heard was the offensive and abusive party in the relationship. She even told Johnny Depp that she could do what she wanted because no one would believe Depp. "Go and tell the world that I, Johnny Depp, am a victim of domestic violence and see how many people believe you.". https://www.screengeek.net/2020/02/07/amber-heard-johnny-depp-full-leaked-audio-recording/

As if it wasn’t hard enough for women to come forward and accuse someone of sexual assault, people like Amber make it so much easier for sexists to dismiss us. And it is important to remember that men are abused too, but it happens so much less. I hope Johnny Depp is doing well and I hope Amber faces jail time.

And this is why men don't speak out about domestic violence. Amber Heard's actions almost mirror an ex-girlfriend of mine who used to physically attack me and then lie that the bruises she gave herself were down to me. My friends had seen her attack me and had had to physically remove/restrain her from me on occasion, but her friends and family all bought it. I left that relationship after my ribs were broken by her father (she'd previously broken my nose), no one believes that a 6'2" man can be beaten up by 5'6" woman but it happens, because men are taught not to hit women so all you can do is restrain them (which is generally how they get bruises to blame on you).

Regardless of that total truth here, she should be fired too. The only reason she has kept her job is because she's a woman. As a woman who is hopefully not a total piece of s**t, that angers me.

I agree with you. I think that they were very toxic and ultimately no one really knows how their relationship played out. But what is good for the goose is good for the gander. If Johnny Depp is to be fired for abuse so should she. There is far evidence, from her own lips, of her abusing him then her video of him throwing things around. She kept her job by being poor innocent woman and I hate that.

Ivana 4 years ago
I don't think it was ever really their choice to have it on open display, they are celebrities so it was kind of beyond their control and it opens up some discussions around abuse. Having conversations about abuse in the open makes having those conversations a lot easier and helps people in abusive relationships to find help and support.

Anyone can be a victim of domestic violence. My uncle is proof of this. He has been stabbed twice by his crazy wife. She also set a house on fire while my uncle and aunt were in it. My cousin was also a victim of domestic violence. He was dragged by a car by his ex girlfriend. Johnny Depp is a good guy and I don't think that he would ever hurt a woman.

Oh come on this is rubbish and the thing is we will never know all the facts. Making your assumptions based on internet and tabloids is rubbish. Looking at them together was cringeworthy enough, both are toxic. Both have abused substances and most probably each other. That is disgusting and sad. I am afraid that I will be looking Depp’s movies differently which is also sad because it was a big part of growing up loving Edward Scissorhands etc. Both of them have a bad rep from now on, but we all know that will pass, especially in Depp’s case because apparently women supporting women is so last season. Jeez... Any kind of violence towards others made is wrong and there should be a price to pay. There are other forms of violence too, not just physical.
Beans 4 years ago
I guess people don't wanna admit their heroes have flaws and just wanna forgive and forget. But I agree with you, they had an awful toxic and abusive relationship. While she was definitely abusive and probably the instigator to their big rows, I question Johnny's mental health for both getting with someone like Amber Heard (and leaving his wife for her) and getting into this toxic dynamic. I too view him differently... their weird actions with the dog thing in Australia.... all the drama now.... they are both at fault, and both need to look at themselves.
Load More Replies... Jeff Diamond 4 years ago
Let me say one thing. As a man who has been emotionally and mentally abused for 13 years, abuse knows no bounds. It's a means of controlling a person through some form of power over them, whether it's physical, emotional, financial, sexual, etc. You don't have to be rich or poor, or live in a certain country. It can happen to anyone, and it can sneak up on you. I didn't even realize it was happening until I was suicidal. The hardest thing to do is getting someone to listen, because so much energy is spent telling yourself the abuse "really is that bad" when you want to deny that fact. It's an exhausting thing, and it's terrifying to think about the future without them, especially when there are kids involved.

From what I can tell yes, she was abusive and (allegedly) instigated a lot of fights. She harmed him and/or threw things at his face. He retaliated at least once physically, but does it make it right because she started it? idk. They are both at fault as far as I'm concerned.

In England, the court assumes the person being sued for libel (The Sun) is lying and they have to prove they were telling the truth. You have to have evidence back up what your printed or you lose. On 12 counts, there was evidence he is abusive. Whether she beat him as well (overwhelming evidence) was not on trial, only his actions. Its like being busted for leaving your kids in a locked car in the heat and saying its ok because your wife did too. You are still a douche who risked the health of someone you claimed to love. Also, him losing his job and not her is about money, not hypocrisy. Neither was fired while it was mere accusations It was only after a court ruled he was abusive that he lost his job - the court ruling means Depp broke a moral clause in the contract. WB is doing the same thing with her right now. In their eyes she's "only" an accused abuser, not a real one yet. Don't want to risk a wrongful termination suit until you have court precedence.
Jay Dee 3 years ago
No it wasn't. He started losing work as soon as she accused him. The whole reason he went to court was that his name was being dragged through the dirt. He provided ample evidence that she was lying about the abuse (read the court documents) the judge ignored most of it and Nicols' main argument was that she wasn't a golddigger because she gave away the divorce money. He dismissed Johnny's claims that he was set up by her from the start on the back of this. Well, it turns out she has not given away the divorce money at all, she kept it. It was just more of her lies. Johnny has appealed and I hope he wins this time.

As a company you're free to hire or fire anyone that has been found guilty of a crime. If you consider this an individual that does not represent the moral code you want to hold up or may harm your reputation in anyway it is your right to distance yourself from that person. In this case spousal abuse...BUT then to keep on another of whom it has also been proven in court SHE PUT OUT A CIGARETTE ON THE FACE of her partner??? That's just too ridiculous for words... Anyone knows you can lash out at someone while defending yourself or after enough provocation but to actually harm someone with a burrning object reveals a sadistic nature and this would be acceptable behaviour for WB and it shareholders???

AH: "I have a ton of evidence!" The evidence: here are some terrible stories, using disturbing details, like how I was a 3 day hostige and all (while having a mobile phone the entire time and free to go whenever I want or call someone to pick me up). These stories are true, cause I said so and also, my close friends said so!!! I told them stories in the past too, but never saw it. JD team: you don't have any document about any of your injuries, only some very weak doubtable pictures, we have pictures about you on the following day, can prove that none of them seems to be realistic or true, your doctor/nurse did not see it. So I guess they sent Depp to hospital with his injured finger, and they just fully ignored your damaged, injured, choked, bloody half dead ass, who was abused for days and did not take you to the hospital or anything? guess they were just JD fans or bots or something. Police did not see injuries in another either, so I guess they just lied...or bots or JD fans...

Vanessa Paradis lived with Jonn Depp and had children with him. She's a well know actress and singer in the French speaking parts of the world. Mme Paradis stood by her ex companion and said he never hit her or anybody else. Unfortunately her testimony was not taken into account. What kind of strange Justice system has the UK that doesn't believe the evidences and the people who testified for M Depp. GB is a very strange country with a weird justice that penalizes the victim. I truly hope that he can get another court judgement that will fair.

Vanessa only gave evidence that Johnny did not abuse her that does not mean that he did not hit Amber, the courts could do little with that information. We now know that Amber is the one that was abusive but that's only because of the tapes of her admitting that she hits him when she goes into her rages.

You have clearly never been abused. That is an insulting thing to say to those of us who have been in abusive relationships. Whether you meant it or not you must understand that staying involves a multitude of reasons and feelings. It’s not all about the Benjamins. There are psychological reasons, reasons of fear and safety…it’s really impossible to explain. The bottom line is that unless you have experienced something, you have absolutely no idea how you’d react and have zero qualifications to make any meaningful assessment.
