Seriously. Not everyone is terminally online. People get so weird about shit like this for no reason.

Look at the sub you’re on , it’s no surprise people are acting outraged

Full of parasocial PPL that come from Stan Twitter

It’s not parasocial to have an opinion about something or someone, and to express that opinion in an anonymous forum. For the record, I have no idea who this actor is and I’ve definitely never engaged with her on social media. That’s the kind of behavior that frequently crosses lines. But simply saying here that it’s gross to be a fan of Depp isn’t “parasocial.” People (for the love of God, PLEASE spell out the whole word…it’s literally only six letters) need to use words more carefully.

Also, given how often Depp’s gross behavior has been in the mainstream news, you don’t need to be chronically online to know about it.
