Abstract
How do tweets shows online feminism campaigns can be misguided and lead to irrational comments about specific affairs and individuals? This article analyzes the publics reactions towards the case of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard on Twitter using topic modeling. Also, the report introduces some comparative perspectives on hashtag feminism and provides a link between those theories and actual reactions so that both of them can be better explained. The outcome states that there was an obvious shift in topics between the period of Amber Heard expanding the influence of her accusation towards Johnny Depp using #Metoo and the period of Johnny Depp proving himself innocent through a lawful trial. That is to say, the previous criticism of Johnny Depp and support for Amber Heard lack the judgment to a certain extent. More specifically, these relatively non-objective reactions were due to some of the characteristics of hashtag feminism. And in turn, this study points out that preventing further misuse of online feminism movements will require more studies to have a more detailed understanding of how should online feminism movements operate to help those genuinely in need.
