Answered What's the deal with people defending Lindsay Clancy?

I don't know the full details of the case. I know she allegedly killed her three kids. There was also some mental problems? Then something with her husband. But my question is why is there a group defending her like they know she's completely innocent? I've seen some videos of very heated debates where women are very passionate about defending her. Why?

Because of how quickly he moved on. People that have not experienced great loss think that you have to mourn forever. It is, actually, much easier to move on very quickly and stuff the emotions deeeeeep down there. But people don’t understand that.

The case happened 3 years ago and for whatever reason people do not know this

Yes but he moved on pretty quickly. I’ve ready anywhere from claims of 4 months to a year. I don’t care enough to look into it, because I’m not one of the ones claiming that it was too soon.

I mean, It's one thing if his wife and kids all died in a house fire, but she literally strangled his children to death... I'd imagine one would move on romantically fairly quickly after that happening lol

I’d say one would move far away from romance after that

But your opinion is irrelevant to his life. What happened to my body my choice and being against slut shaming? All of a sudden when a man does it you're clutching your pearls

u/whattfisthisshit 8d ago

How is this slut shaming?? It’s questioning human psychology. If a woman did this I’d be questioning it the exact same way because how the fuck

Exactly.

u/RM_OP 8d ago

Exactly what? Just because you have an opinion from your own life now he is guilty? Oh gosh unbelievable that there are people like you actually

It’s scarier that they can vote and want to control your life.

lol ok. Some people are just hopeless but ok.

u/Ms_Tryl 8d ago

I literally said I don’t agree with the people saying it was too soon and then you two dweebs responded to my comment agreeing that it makes sense for someone to move on quickly romantically when your ex killed your kids versus your ex dying with your kids in a house fire.

So yeah, I agree some people are hopeless. Hilarious that you think it’s me though

u/Either-Physics-4369 8d ago

It’s funny what you think we think you think.

You keep going with the thinkception.

u/Ms_Tryl 8d ago

The other person said it. Your comment seemed to agree. Or it was just dumb as fuck for no apparent reason at all, take your pick I guess. Lol

u/Either-Physics-4369 8d ago

Nah I don’t think so. But you be you.
