"I think the fact that Depp’s jokes about the murder and rape of a woman have been so readily dismissed is significant. We dismiss them because the abuse of women is so easily ignored, undermined, or derided in our society. Depp manages to maintain his 'sweet Johnny' persona in spite of his hateful words because the vulgar, disrespectful and obscene attitudes to women that were exposed during the trial mean nothing to us – we can accept that they’re jokes because we don’t take misogyny seriously."
