Johnny Depp is OJ Simpson for they/thems neurodivergents who collect Funko pops

[killtheteendream]

Mind you this isn’t a stretch of a comparison at all. People forget that when OJ was first arrested for his wife Nicole’s murder, he told cops that he was the victim of abuse - that she had hit him. He recounted a domestic violence incident years earlier, in 1989, when he’d been arrested for assaulting Nicole. He claimed that she’d been the aggressor - she’d been drinking and picking a fight. He’d merely “wrestled” her to the ground to subdue her, to stop her from hitting him (something Johnny would similarly allege in court this week when he was questioned abut a December 2015 incident where he admitted, on tape, to headbutting Amber; he insists he was simply trying to stop her from hitting him and put her in a “bear hug” and that their foreheads touched. Nothing more). He said the police didn’t believe him since he was a man. And like Johnny, O.J. would allege throughout the criminal and civil cases surrounding his wife’s murder that she’d been lying about being abused, that she pulled a Gone Girl: Photos of her with bruises? Just makeup. Diary entries where she recounted the abuse she suffered? They were concocted to void their prenup.

So what’s the difference here? Is it that Amber lived and Nicole didn’t? Or is it that Edward Scissorhands had more of an impact on people than Naked Gun

What would Nicole Simpson have had to do to be safe? Go underground, change her appearance and identity, get cash without leaving a trail, take her children and run—all within days of her call to the shelter. She would have had to end all communication with family and friends, without explanation, for years, as well as leave her home and everything familiar.

With this abuser’s wealth and power, he would have had her hunted down; a dream team of lawyers would have taken her children from her. She would have been the villain—reckless, a slut, reviled for stealing the children of a hero. If his abuse of her is of no consequence now that she’s been murdered, how irrelevant would it have been as she, resourceless, tried to make a court and the public understand that she needed to run for her life?

-Andrea Dworkin, In Memory of Nicole Brown

What Dworkin says would have happened to Brown is what is happening to Amber Heard. It would be a hundred times worse if children were involved.
