does anyone have any idea if Amber Heard's "Drive Angry" starring Nicholas Cage was used in evidence in the court case?

I think this is a vital question before I can pass judgement on the validity of the finding.

Then why did you comment on it in the first place? This feels like not realizing the reach of your Twitter account, posting something without being informed, then being surprised when a clearly touchy subject causes people to be varying degrees of upset and confused with you.

Please try to do better on this kind of stuff going forward.

[SmokyDave]

Straight white man exclusively dates straight white women. Grows hair a bit, changes pronouns, becomes a marginalised person in dire need of help that the fascist state won't provide them. It's a lovely story.

They (Erza) started contacting them (Tokota) when they (Tokota) were 12, flew them (Tokota) out to the set of fantastic beasts at 14, and have been providing them (Tokota) with substances and isolating their family from them, and you don't see that as grooming? The parents discovered that they didn't have their license, car keys, bank card, etc. So they were taking access away from transportation and self finances...

 

Are the parent's they or theys? Dunno, unclear.

I believe this poor fellow got really confused by the thread title and thinks the girl also has they/them pronouns.

Edit:oh wait, now I got confused, TMZ says that the daughter is non binary. Which I guess is good for Ezra because now he's not grooming a girl but just a person, which sounds way more harmless

[benjipwns]

Please don't use the term "grooming" as that is a right-wing Gamergate associated term that promotes literal genocidal terroristic violence against LGBTQIA2S+ people. It will create a misinterpretation about what it is that a marginalized and vulnerable person like Ezra Miller is being accused of. And especially please don't do it during Pride Month of all months.

I had this idea for this thread because I found a pride shirt I absolutely adore. With Texas thinking about banning drag shows for kids, but not AR-15s, and with trans kids being targeted by CPS and Abbott’s new order, it’s more important than ever this pride month to do something pro-trans. 

I've already been to 2 drag shows this month and plan to go to more! Recently a restaurant opened up wanting to do drag shows so I let my friend(Drag performer) know they got in contact with them and went to the show yesterday!

It was great, and I really hope to see more in that space as it's not in the cities gay bar. I'll be for sure dragging more of my friends to shows.

Also tip the kings/encourage local shows to have more kings!

Genuinely curious - has there been any sort of "backlash" from the GOP or other right-wing idiots about Ezra doing this stuff BECAUSE they're non-binary and queer?

I can't help but think how this awful person's behavior can color an entire section of an already marginalized community. I think of it like how Christine Chandler, a trans woman, going to jail for sexually assaulting her mother, which plays RIGHT into the awful stereotype of "trans women are just men who rape other women" or whatever disgusting crap.

Not that we should pay any lip service to shitty right-wing assholes trying to strawman Ezra's actions as "see this is what 'woke' culture and being non-binary does to a person!" but like... ugh.

Obviously Ezra isn't doing these actions because they're non-binary and queer, they're a fucked up person through and through it seems, but they're a very visible person who happens to be non-binary and queer. I can't think of many other major movie stars, especially in the realm of effects-heavy superhero movies like this, who fit that bill.

This wasn't "PoCs" - Boudin won the Mission. He had support from the Hispanic vote. Like other elections in SF this was driven primarily by the Asian & older white populations.

The Asian communities of SF have been getting attacked multiple times a week, and they felt that their concerns and fears were ignored, resulting in Chesa rightfully getting the boot.

Given that this is Era I do not expect the plight and concerns of Asian Americans to be given the consideration and respect that is deserved, hence most of Asian-Era having already upped and left this place.

We already have insinuations that Asians aren't PoC or minorities...

Locally, Dion Lim, a reporter on the ABC affiliate, would fish out these “reports.” Quite a bit of the reports were inaccurate, but scared Asians into believing there’s an epidemic of hate crimes going on.

Wow, we actually have someone here downplaying anti Asian hate crimes? Unbelievable. No wonder so much of Asian ERA has left.

I used to love Dion Lim as am anchor snd reporter in Tampa. All of her social media posts almost exclusive anti-Asian crime. And I'm not even exaggerating. I see nothing else from her platforms, except maybe community awards and the occasional local story.

That goes to show you how much anti-Asian crime is happening on the daily. It wasn't always this bad, but here we are.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/san-francisco-da-chesa-boudin-has-officially-been-recalled-from-office.592617/page-3#post-87953487

There’s a difference between downplaying crime and someone fishing for one set of them. I’m against hate crimes. Dion Lim has produced content that hasn’t described the entire story. It’s not helping anyone when she does this. It’s only creating division. She never calls out SFPD over their lack of policing. She just shows violence from Twitter.

User Banned (1 Month): Downplaying Misogyny; Account in Junior Phase

I will say that the viciousness around Amber Heard was way worse than someone like, say, Harvey Weinstein got, a man that committed much worse crimes than her. His conviction didn't trend on Twitter nor get tens of millions of views on YouTube.

And I do think sexism had a role in that. I guess the evil, conniving woman makes for a better villian than a powerful Hollywood man.

Did Harvey Weinstein orchestrate false claims of abuse against one of the biggest actors of all time and on the largest stage possible, propelling himself to the UN and heading marches/speeches on the backs of a social movement he co-opted/followed by a defamatory op-ed, all the while backed by organizations like the ACLU while the sustained grassroots efforts of fans for six entire years spawned the apparatus across social media and compilation of evidence necessary for such a campaign to reach the heights it has as the first major case of the current social media era and post-Rittenhouse era boom of lawtube in place to follow it?
People act as though this just came out of nowhere and this whole ordeal hasn't been massive news/massively followed but concealed and downplayed by the media and a lot of communities, until the damn finally broke as I knew it would and the coverage was inescapable.
This trial was in the same vein of Casey Anthony or OJ in terms of public interest and accessibility on top of impact of celebrity culture and clear injustice fueling the fervor, boiling the difference down to just "misogyny" is entirely reductive and ignores all the special circumstances of the case; this being the first highly publicized and tried case against a female abuser and involving a male victim for one.

I've seen people mention it a few times, but what is it that people refer to as the "community thread"?

A good question. The Constructive Community Discussion thread existed for me up until a couple of months ago, and then all of a sudden, ‘thread not found’, as it was for another poster earlier in this thread.

Post count doesn’t seem to have anything to do with it - I’ve got very few, some others have thousands and still can’t see it.

I hope Kavanaugh and his ilk can't sleep at night. This guy clearly had mental issues but facist supporters should know there's a real threat to what they're doing to destroy our country.

As for what happened to Kavanaugh, well...when you're in a position of power that was passed to you because you're impartial (and that's putting it mildly), expect people that are feeling it to fight back.
