fyi, amber heard was a domestic abuse victim who had plenty of evidence documenting the abuse she experienced + a story that reflected well established patterns of interpersonal abuse. yet plenty of libs/leftists participated in the reactionary, heavily coordinated smear campaign against her, without hesitation, and still don’t seem to care/recognize how devastating the effects have been. we are experiencing a period of cultural regression without any reckoning of how we got here
Women often downplay sexual violations when we’re assaulted by men we know. We say it was a bad hookup, an uncomfortable sexual experience, it was our fault. That we do this doesn’t mean we weren’t assaulted. It means it’s difficult to admit a man we trusted did this
So Justin Baldoni wants the conversation about his career long exploitation and harassment of women to continue.
Happy to oblige. Join me later today as @redlightexpose and I chat about what the women who work with him have to say...

Did you know disabled people are far more likely to be the victims of domestic abuse?
It’s because we’re trapped.
When you can’t perform your own activities of daily living, you endure abuse to survive.
Another reason we need better safety nets and social supports.
July is Disability Pride Month. This month, all I want is for non-disabled people to care about us. I want them to not only know this month exists, but to want us in society. Disabled people have been begging to be included in the world since the beginning. Please listen to us.
A lot of the few resources that do exist for DV survivors aren't for disabled people too. A lot of people are sent away from shelters if they're deemed to be too "difficult". A lot of disabled ppl aren't allowed to save. Abuse is excused more. And that's the tip of the iceberg.
Case in point, they're actively bragging and gloating about shutting down the social media accounts of the women accusing Justin Baldoni.
It's always been about silencing anyone raising awareness of this abusive man's behavior.
@TheBanshee There is nothing the world likes more than rejuvenating the image of an abusive man.
Like why the fuck does Brad Pitt still have a career? He strangled a child for fuck sake.
A lingering question I've had since the Lively/Baldoni case (mostly) settled: Was there actually a digital smear campaign against Lively or did her reputation decline organically? In this piece, I dive into the evidence:

I’ll always be grateful to her. She exposed a lot of the mechanics of how these online smear campaigns work. She should be celebrated for this alone. Now I hope she can find some peace for herself and her family.
I’LL ALWAYS STAND WITH BLAKE LIVELY. ❤️🐉
blake lively sacrificed her time, her resources, her mental health for nearly two years in an effort to expose sinister campaigns to silence those who speak out.
And she achieved that. I'm really proud of her and I'll always be her biggest fan 💝
It’s honestly hilarious how Blake Lively showed up to the most prestigious event of the year right after her settlement. She remains an industry darling even in the midst of a smear campaign against her. They wanted to destroy her & they failed miserably. Ik they’re seething 😭
A much needed reminder : only the lawsuit with Blake lively has been settled, Justin Baldoni's studio has four more different lawsuits against them, which includes claims of sexual discrimination (Ofc), racial discrimination and plagiarism.
