it's been a long, long time

the official bbc merlin account tweeting for the first time in 10 yrs wasn’t on my 2023 bingo card

all of her witnesses including her friend’s ex husband who happens to be a male victim of dv had to private their social accounts because they immediately started receiving threats. her psychologist (who also testified against keith raniere and r kelly) had her reviews flooded with negativity after she took the stand. all of her friends who were witnesses admitted they’ve grown apart over the years and i have to believe at least some of it is from the continued harassment they’ve received from that man’s supporters as they’ve continued to testify multiple times for amber. you call this equal fucking ground…..she is so fucking alone. even most of the people who dare to speak up against the way the trial is being covered are criticizing exactly that — the media. everyone is willing to mock her by name but the second someone tells them it’s harmful they’re apologizing to some vague third part. my heart is broken for her in so many ways.
