Twitter Users React To Open Letter Supporting Amber Heard After Johnny Depp Wins Defamation Trial

Twitter users have different reactions to the new open letter supporting Amber Heard.

About 140 experts and organizations, including Gloria Steinem, Leslie Morgan Steiner, Constance Wu, Women's March Action, Women's March Foundation, The Asian Feminist, The Women's Equal Justice Project, Movement of Mothers, and more signed the open letter for Heard. The open letter claimed that the verdict in Johnny Depp and Heard's trial in Virginia on June 1 "deeply concerned many professionals in the fields of intimate partner and sexual violence."

The open letter published Wednesday added, "The vilification of Ms. Heard and ongoing online harassment of her and those who have voiced support for her have been unprecedented in both vitriol and scale."

Twitter users immediately reacted after the open letter was published. The netizens have mixed opinions about the matter.

"Amber Heard's Open Letter Key Points. -If you believe Depp was defamed you are Biphobic and Misogynistic. (Women and Men) -Believe All Women even if they obviously are lying. -If the facts prove the woman is lying, IGNORE the facts. -Men CANNOT be survivors of DV," Nate The Lawyer, a Youtube lawyer, tweeted, before adding, "Unbelievable."

"I am actually quite upset by this insane Amber Heard open letter being touted in the media. This is the definition of gaslighting. We must stop this and stand up for Johnny Depp and, most importantly, the truth," one wrote.

"I'm so upset and annoyed as well. I can't understand how she has managed to get all these people to go out and support her. I refuse to believe that they are all blind and unable to see what she is unless they are the same way," another added.

"3,654 people signed this open letter in support of Johnny Depp in a matter of hours (I'm 2280)," a Depp supporter wrote. "Amber Heard can take her 130 signatures & shove it. People know the truth, they saw it & heard it for themselves during a 6 week trial."
