Pretty depressing that we live in a world where far more people are willing to believe that a 24 year old woman got married to a man 25 years her senior, all so, over the course of 7 years. she could meticulously gather fake evidence of abuse (including diary entries, corroborating texts and photos), convince a bunch of witnesses to lie under oath and goad her then husband into admitting to headbutting her on tape in an elaborate Gone Girl scenario to… *checks notes* write one line in an op ed, than it is for people to believe a rich powerful man with a documented history of substance abuse and violent outbursts hit his wife.
Absolutely disgusted by NT’s priorities in this time of crisis. You can follow GLAAD on Twitter or Insta for more updates on the queer community is responding to this downright shameful behavior.
I'm sincerely so happy to have found a space with others who support Amber. As a sexual assault survivor, this year has been really hard. To see thousands of people mocking a woman for saying she was physically and sexually abused was horrific and traumatizing. When I began making posts based in evidence (which inherently backs her allegations) I immediately received rape threats and death threats. The only saving grace was finding other people who decided to challenge the misogynistic, victim blaming rhetoric and stand up for Amber, and I've seen support for her grow immensely since the trial.
I wanted to say thank you to everyone who is actively working to make the world a better, safer place for survivors. It truly means the world ❤️
