It’s not the first time Smith and Depp have hung out in recent years — they were

Almost a whole year after 2022’s Depp v. Heard brought about the

campaign of online misogyny and misinformation I’ve ever seen.

I was there, I remember it! I remember how a man who

case against the Sun calling him a “wife beater,” during which a judge found that 12 of the 14 alleged incidents of domestic ********* against Heard had occurred, was able to (successfully!)

that an article where she simply referred to herself as a “public figure representing domestic ******” was defamatory.

I firmly believe Heard will find her place in groveling, “we-were-so-wrong” media reexaminations in future years, but I don’t care to wait that long. Even though I know it is entirely likely that my inbox will be filled with unhinged content from the moment this is published.

I don’t care! It shouldn’t be a hot take to say, “Hey man, maybe stop normalizing hanging out with people who

, ‘I will ***** her her (sic) burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she is *****,’ and ‘I’ll ****** the ugly ***** around before I let her in.’” Believe me, I’ve cut out plenty of men in my own personal life, and somehow I still live.

Shortly after the trial concluded, I spoke to a counselor about why a public comeback of Depp would be hurtful to survivors. “It reinforces this idea that abusers are not held accountable, that nobody will believe [survivors] and they shouldn’t speak up,” she

me. “It’s another slap in the face.”

“Especially for survivors of ******, who are further marginalized because of their intersecting identities,” she continued. “It reinforces what the abuser is saying: ‘Do you see what happened to a rich person? Nobody’s going to believe you.’ So they tend to stay.”

Honestly, this opinion piece barely even goes out to Smith, or Bocelli for that matter. They are the mere tips of the iceberg of a culture that normalizes men accused of serious ******. Hey, look at St. Vincent
