Amber Heard

Rolling Stone decided to pretend that denouncing one Woman's fake claims denigrates all Women/Survivors.

Rolling Stone decided to pretend that denouncing one pathological liar's fake claims (Amber Heard in her fake abuse trial) denigrates all Women/Survivors/Victims. When the reality is that supporting a liar like Heard, over real survivors, dilutes and dennigrates their cause. But RollingStone appeals to teenagers of many ages, so expect cheap and shallow shots.

RollingStone's, "Men always win" message ignores the majority of the MeToo movement and how many men were unfairly convicted in the court of public opinion or HR court, and not in the real world -- and never could have been in the real world because of a lack of evidence, credibility, and the quid quo pro made the Women willing participants / whores, even if they later regretted their decision to trade sex for career advancement.

So their logic is flawed. The silliness of generalizing one pathological liar to representing all women, comes with the consequence of generalizing all women as pathological liars (or at least the loss of one pathological liar as a loss to all women/victims). Really dumb point.

Of course, if we have a world view more mature than a 13 year old, or Rolling Stone, we know that Amber Heard can be an idiot, and this reflects on nothing more than her ability to instill faith in a jury.

In the larger point, I'd love to see all false claims (against Women or Men) coming with extremely high penalties, as that makes the veracity/quality of future claims to be higher.

Or put in economic terms, if the reward for real claims is high, and the punishment for false claims is high, we can guarantee that the ratio of good claims to bad will improve over assuming all claims are legitimate.

Believe all Women is exactly as stupid as saying believe all Men. Both lie for personal gain, even if their motives vary. Be skeptical of all claims, and looking at the evidence, is a far better message. And the evidence in the Depp/Heard case as she was a liar making false claims. And Johnny was a douche who had enough and would defend his honor/reputation against a psycho. Doesn't make him a saint. But Amber at best was wildly over-exaggerating what happened, and downplayed her participation in it.
