You should care because it's a famous example of a type of abuse that rarely gets attention because it's perpetrated by a woman.
Even now, many people are focused on how pathetic it makes Will, rather than how abusive his wife is being. Many are victim blaming because it's a man who's the victim.
It matters to the bigger picture that we, as a society, address these forms of abuse, or they will proliferate. This case is giving us an opportunity to have the discussion on a major scale.
This is a fair assessment
I agree it’s not fair to label Will as ‘weak’ but you’d think a man with all his money and power would at least stand up for himself.
Friend of mine was talking about how he was being abused for 5 years by his ex girl and it kind of shocked me giving how big a tough guy he is. But you can have all the physical strength in the world and still be emotionally abused by a toxic woman. Mainly because she knew if he said or did anything, the court’s would take the side of a nurse who’s a single mom. I don’t think people realize how the average guy gets screwed over by abusive women and feel powerless because the system won’t side with you
Johnny Depp was being abused by Amber Heard and Hollywood and the media took her side without a second thought.
So what did Johnny do? Take that witch to court and let the whole world see how abusive and crazy she was. But imagine if he didn’t have the money or the name to fight back?
Will has gotta be a man at some point. Who is going to respect him after all this?
