"This one *truly* hurt to watch. I grew up loving Marilyn Manson soooo much. I wish I could say I believe him regarding his innocence, but I would be super lying. Also to denounce the words of these poor girls, would be pretty messed up. Make your own decisions for sure, but know going in that it's insanely painful to hear these accounts, even if you don't care at all about this artist. So sad."

"The first time I really noticed Evan Rachel Wood was in the tv show WestWorld. But it’s crazy to think this woman was abused in every kind of way you can think of by Marilyn Manson. And literally a music video still on YouTube showing an alleged assault from him. Two part documentary about her experience domestic abuse that might be triggering to some."

"Well executed documentary. I'm so glad ERW is speaking out against the horrible abuse she suffered at the hands of someone with power. I hope this encourages more people to speak their truth."

"2 part long documentary about Marilyn Manson’s abuse. What a sick, twisted, disgusting person who needs to be locked up for life. This sick freak always gave me nightmares growing up. Idk why the hell Ye still has him play on stage with him and features him on his new album😒"

"What Evan Rachel Wood went through at the hands of Brian Warner/Marilyn Manson is both shocking and devastating. I hope that she will one day get the justice she deserves. #IStandWithEvan"
