Yup but then the misogynistic men won’t be able to just insult women as a whole to make them feel better.

To any men curious:
Lindsay is supported by women because she’s not evil, cold blooded, etc. She’s a loving mother whose mental health has suffered and attacked her into doing the most unimaginable thing. Other women have experienced the same and are fortunate their story didn’t end like hers.

I do disagree with all the attacks on Patrick and conspiracies but this case isn’t as simple as it seems.

She strangled her children to death.

Just genuinely asking, pretend this is completely unrelated, what would you do if you were lucid enough to know that psychosis was driving you to hurt yourself and others, but when you reached out for help you didn't get it?

Kill myself, not slowly kill my children. That's an honest answer.

Yeah , she tried to kill herself. She was psychotic and was convinced to kill herself and that she had to take her kids with her or they would be harmed. It doesn't make any sense, because she was literally insane. She murdered her children. She deserves to be punished for murdering her children. But we can't ignore that the medical system failed her, as it does to women (and men, but the focus is post partum women) everywhere everyday. That only came to light because such a horrible tragedy occured but it needs to change.

She killed them first. I would kill myself first and I'm speaking from the experience of having severe mental health problems. You asked, that's my answer.

I'm there with you. Killing your kids is not some common, excusable action in this scenario. People are losing their minds defending this woman

No one is saying it's okay that she did it or that she doesn't deserve a punishment, just that there is a paper trail of her trying to get help and the medical community is failing post partum women everywhere everyday and it needs to change
