The pollyanna group of enablers are out in full force siding with Amber Heard I see.

@LeopoldBloom The irony of calling me naive when you can't recognize a borderline when you see it, this is why we call them pollyanna enablers in the narc survivor communities. Machiavellian personalities have a VERY different speech pattern that I can instantly recognize when they're manipulating the conversation because they are pathological liars.

I heard the recordings and saw that, looks like most psychologists agree with me too.

@SatanBurger I agree with you regarding narcissists and so on, but Machiavellianism as a trait isn't really that often associated with BPD. It's more NPD and ASPD.

@basilfawlty89 Ah okay thanks for the clarification, I do recognize that there's differences, just that a lot can carry over between them it seems. Like I was listening to a psychologist (the video in this post,) and I think he talked about pathological lying being apart of borderlines but it's also apart of NPD and ASPD so I just lumped it together. But just because something has traits of one thing, doesn't make it true that it's "this other thing." So you're right.

@SatanBurger indeed. People with BPD can be manipulative, but normally there's no malice behind it like with a lack of empathy or with sadism like in NPD and ASPD.

@basilfawlty89 Oh yeah okay I knew it was something like that, they generally don't do it on purpose. I remember hearing that from Dr. Ramani, something similar but it's so complicated that I can't frame it like that. Thanks ❤️

@LeopoldBloom
It's a very worthwhile comment but ultimately I disagree.

The reasons why TikTok and Youtube were so savage on Heard are largely because there was so much material to work with. Depp's team successfully discredited Heard's testimony in full public view. Whereas Depp's evidence could mostly be corroborated, Heard's relied on herself alone. Unlike the British trial, the judge allowed her to be cross-examined and several of her positions were discredited. This makes it hard for a jury to believe any of it.

The jury probably did have access to social media, but they also saw every minute of the trial.

There is a credible argument that Depp has more fans and that this helped him.. He's a popular guy and an indie bro so this might have influenced social media. However, none of that protected Depp from being dropped from movies when he was first accused. None of that protected Kevin Spacey or numerous other stars, each more popular and powerful than the women accusing them. I personally thought that Depp was probably guilty at the beginning of this trial.

As for Ben Shapiro being a fan? I despise him and I also support MeToo. The Daily Caller support hardly makes Depp guilty though. I want to agree with the feminists defending Heard against the Conservatives supporting Depp. I just can't though because of the simple reason that I think Heard was lying.

@Burnley123 My main beef is that Heard's career is over. No studio will sign her as they would probably get death threats. Heard is an actual victim of cancel culture, with a good chance of having to open a pressure washing business like Tonya Harding if she wants to survive. Depp's career on the other hand will continue unabated.

In retrospect, the jury should have been sequestered. It's possible they would have reached the same verdict but now we'll never know how much they were influenced by the zeitgeist.
