"I’ve been backing Johnny Depp for a long time, & taken a lot of heat for it. And that’s because it’s a very sensitive subject - but just because Hollywood is quiet doesn’t mean they aren’t looking into it. #JusticeForJohnnyDepp trending at #1 and #2 gets noticed by studio suits," notes this long time Depp supporter on Twitter.
"It’s 2020 and society still wants to make believe that men can’t be abused. That they have to be all “macho” and if a man goes out to seek help from the justice system, the system it self doesn’t fully believe him. ENOUGH WITH THE HYPOCRISY AND THE STIGMAS " writes another user.
"All forms of abuse should be called out and dragged into the light for all to see. It's high time that Amber Heard's abuse got that treatment" writes this one user. "If the roles were reversed, Depp would absolutely vilified by the media and SJWs. Double standards, much?" writes another.
There are a lot of tweets expressing concern and support for Depp. "He’s been apart of my childhood for as long as I can remember, seeing the media pretend not too care about his abuse is sickening and heartbreaking, I send love and good health to Johnny depp and I hope he can cope in a healthy matter. stay strong <3," says one tweet. Another fan writes, "I am so sad for Johnny Depp. He got fired from Pirates of the Caribbean because of Amber Heard. Johnny losing his most beloved character Jack Sparrow. He even named his son after this character. Then Amber gaining roles from all this. Disgusting."
