#Actually
#One thing I will say about this trial and then be done with it is that people should be careful not to catastrophize because of the
#verdict. 'Oh so women can't do [x] without [y] now'
#Incorrect lol. There is no 'now' because women have always been victims of an unjust system. Absolutely nothing has changed and
#nothing was going to change because our system is structured so that victims period (regardless of gender) always come out on the bottom
#Our justice system is not a tool of justice; our justice system is a tool of status and power goes to whomever can afford it.
#Sorry I don't know who thought this was ever going to be fair but it wasn't
#A high-profile case with two high-profile clients seeking equally high-profile goals from this verdict and you guys thought this was
#gonna be a nice fair little playdate?
#Couldn't be me
#Hollywood and politics do not mesh well; the rich pay for the outcomes they want and if you didn't get the outcome you
#wanted I guess that means you didn't pay enough.
#But this whole idea that Amber's loss is a loss for the people is sooo... lol. like when were victims ever in a position to win within a
#system that protects abusers?
#You can't say 364 days a year that rich people experience the world differently than ordinary people do
#and then claim that Amber's loss has some bearing on Normal People
#It does not <3
#Amber was in a far better position to win than you or I or Sally from down the street and she still didn't and if you think that's just
#because she's a Woman I encourage you to develop some perspective that's not so narrowly focused. There's a bigger picture here than
#women good men bad but the way you guys reduce major historical or social events to these segmented points instead of observing them
#as part of a whole is so frustrating.
#Misogyny is a fraction of a bigger problem here. If you're going to be mad about something be mad about all facets of the social structure
#rather than just highlighting one and creating an entire false narrative around it.
