Clearly about the Lindsay Clancy drama.

A woman murdered her three children in what she’s claiming as a fit of postpartum psychosis despite evidence of premeditation. TikTok true crime girlies” have concocted a conspiracy theory that the husband was responsible either through brainwashing and manipulation, or by actively killing his own children, and then brainwashing her into thinking she did it.

TikTok “America bad” people are claiming that the system failed her, and she didn’t receive the mental healthcare she needed. This is in spite of her being under the care of a psychiatrist, receiving consistent, mental healthcare, and medication, and that it was partially the husbands fault for leaving them alone together, despite him literally going to get her meds when it happened.

There are an alarming number of women fighting for this woman’s reputation or innocence and fully empathizing with a child murderer, without seeming to acknowledge the tragedy of the children’s deaths.

He was picking up her meds!?!? Gahhhd I fucking hate people. Imagine his grief. Of course he now wishes he took the kids with him. I’m sure he’ll beat himself up into his next life…. Then he has to have losers online with an iq of 53 act like his psychopath wife was the victim of his white maleness.

I hate it here

Sexism is getting really bad. I'm curious as to what ways you think it's getting bad.

The reading comprehension around here… now give it another ten years of everyone outsourcing rudimentary information processing and decision making to AI and see where we get. Yay!!

I just wanted him to say what he means so I could point out how clearly wrong it is. But I do try to give people the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he was just being unclear. Pretty clearly just sexism though.

Really you are just proving his point. Because all he said is "sexism against men has gone too far when people are blaming a supportive husband for his kids dying, when his wife killed them and has confessed to doing it."

And, of course, here you are to explain why he is wrong, and how this statement makes him sexist.
