The Depp-heard Trial Perpetuates The Myth Of The Perfect Victim

Victim advocates hoped that, five years after #MeToo went viral, our culture would have developed a nuanced understanding of harassment and assault.

And victims can be flawed: They don’t need to be pure or sober to tell the truth. But social media strips away nuance.
