For people who have been studying the misinformation campaign around the Depp v Heard trial, this verdict is chilling. The success of Deppโs โredemption arcโ narrative reveals a lot about our social media platforms and ourselves.
A thread of things I learned during Depp v Heard:
Canโt believe I used to be That Guy who would queue like 12 hours for concerts just 2 be at the front what the fuck like now I can barely even bring myself to show up for the support acts Iโm a sellout
In elementary school when we would have read out loud to the class from the textbook I would literally count the kids in front of me and figure out what section I was reading so I could practice it before it got to my turn & I think thatโs where my anxiety started.
