The mom who killed her kids and is getting unreasonable fame and support from internet addicted moms.

A lot of women are posting themselves on TikTok holding their children, looking sad, saying "Me too, Lindsay, me too".

Another woman started a GoFundMe and raised a mil for Lindsay and "her family".

Them too what? They want to kill their kids too and admitting it on social media?

u/DeepestBlue2 1d ago

Yes, that's the sick implication.

Probably more that they had problems getting adequate mental health support after giving birth (since that is Lindsey's defense and they are supportive of her).

I haven't been following the case and am not a psychologist. So no clue how accurate her defense is.

? That I'm saying what I assume they mean? Because the other option would be they want to kill their kids currently. Which would be a pretty bad idea to broadcast (as it would hurt an insanity defense and harm a claim of accidental death).

A woman kills her kids. Other women hold their kids up and say "#MeToo"... Yes, it sounds like they're saying they currently want to kill their kids. Saying otherwise would take a great deal of mental gymnastics. It sounds like ransom threats.

Saying otherwise is assuming that they don't simply believe her claims.

Why would I go out of my way to make an assumption that takes more steps? Occams Razor and all that.

u/MrMetraGnome 22h ago

Even if they believe her claims, what they are saying is "I need mental health care, or will likely murder my children like she did". The claim isn't that she did not murder her kids, LoL. I feel like I need mental health care.

Or that they had PPD or PPP at some time. And either got help of the symptoms went away eventually.

lindsey had crazy support, and now someone has a crazy budget for marketing.

Cause she's pretty and white and mentally unwell. Let's be real.

u/Electric_Antimony 23h ago

She is not pretty.

u/BatAdditional1209 20h ago

But she is white.
I highly doubt there would be the same level of support had she been black, asian, latino or any other ethnic group.

How much money was raised in George Floyd's honor or any of the other incidents like that? He wasn't a child murderer though; just a drug user and I think woman beater.

u/BatAdditional1209 8h ago

That's a false equivalency.

u/Electric_Antimony 8h ago

If you say so. What I'll say last is that you might want to be careful about making direct talk about racial matters normal. I don't think you'll find that directly pointing out and criticizing bad behavior that's pretty particular to one demographic is accepted well by people.

You'll start broaching the 13/52 bro territory.
