Rogan To Lindsey Clancy Fans: Look At The Crime Scene

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity News,

Joe Rogan has had enough of the women lining up outside a Massachusetts courthouse in pink to cheer a mother who strangled her three children to death.

Sitting with comedian Brian Simpson, he refused to accept the "Free Lindsay" spectacle as a mental-health awareness campaign.

He treated it as a grotesque inversion of basic human instinct: hundreds of adults, overwhelmingly women, performing solidarity with a child murderer.

Joe Rogan condemns the "Free Lindsay" crowd:

"If those ladies could see the crime scene and see those dead kids with their vacant eyes staring up because their mother took their life, the last thing that they saw was their mother standing over them, choking them to death, I don't think they would feel so bad," he said.

"People are out of their mind. People are showing up in support of a woman who killed her children. I don't care how rough it was. The ability to kill your children is crazy," Rogan further urged.

"Anyone who has kids knows how much you love them, what you would do to save them, what you do to protect them from harm," he added.

New: Joe Rogan reacts to the Lindsay Clancy trial with black comedian Brian Simpson and says Society "ALWAYS" Finds Sympathy for Women that Men Would Never Get, Even When a Mother Kills Her Own Children:

"If She Gets Free, Her Supporters Should Have to LET HER BABYSIT."

Rogan suggested to imagine if a single father had done the same thing. "He wouldn't get this same sympathy." And if Lindsay Clancy is found not criminally responsible and walks, "her supporters should have to let her babysit."

Simpson was cruder still. She went three-for-three on the strangulations, he said, then chose a sloppy method when it came time to kill herself. "Why not strangle yourself? You are definitely good at that."

That is the conversation the country is now having while a jury of nine women and three men sits in Plymouth, unable so far to agree whether Clancy was a murderer or a woman so far gone mentally that she cannot be held responsible.

Clancy does not deny the killings. The trial is about why. The defense, led by Kevin Reddington, says postpartum psychosis, command hallucinations, and a blizzard of medications left her unable to understand the wrongfulness of what she was doing. Prosecutors say she cleared the house on purpose, acted with precision, and later built a psychosis story around a planned crime.

That is the legal fight. Outside the building it became something else: a fandom.

Hundreds of supporters, almost all women, have gathered outside Plymouth Superior Court in pink. Shirts and signs read "She Needed Help," "Peace For Lindsay," and "Believe." Organizer Renee Kimball, who has no personal connection to the family, told reporters the point was to stand "in peace" for a woman she said any of them could have been.

"Any one of us who have dealt with mental health, anxiety, depression, postpartum - I think we just know that any one of us could be sitting in her chair," Kimball said.

April Vincent, a paralegal from Rhode Island, framed it as systemic neglect: "Women are being dismissed, neglected and ignored when we speak up."

That language has been the constant. Not "she killed three children." She needed help. The system failed her. I could have been her.

A USA Today columnist who had raised four children under six wrote that she was "perplexed." Millions of women endure exhaustion, pain, and the grind of early motherhood without wrapping exercise bands around a toddler's neck.

The online version of the fandom went further than the courthouse: "I could have been Lindsay Clancy," Substack essays, "Same, Lindsay" videos filmed with living children in frame, GoFundMe money flowing to the parents of the woman who killed their grandchildren.

Bill Maher, no one's idea of a MAGA culture warrior, looked at the same footage and asked the question the pink shirts refuse to.

"What I don't get is why does she have fans?" he said on his August 28 show.

"There are so many women now who are, like, outside the courthouse. It's a little like Luigi. I understand the frustration. Don't understand why the fans."

He compared the courthouse crowds to the women who treat Luigi Mangione as a folk hero. Frustration with systems is one thing. Building a fan club around a person who ended three young lives is another.

Then he widened the lens: not many women kill their children, "but a lot of them are not afraid to say, 'I don't like being a mom.'" The Clancy trial became a permission structure for a broader, fashionable disgust with the job of mothering itself.

Rogan and Simpson arrived at the same observation from the other direction. Society always finds a softer story when the defendant is a woman. A father who strangled three children would be a monster without question. There would be no silent pink line and no Etsy "Team Lindsay" shirts.

As of Wednesday, the jury was back for a fifth day of deliberations. On Tuesday they sent Judge William Sullivan a note: after many hours they could not reach a unanimous decision. He sent them back, citing the length of the trial, more than 80 witnesses, and more than 300 exhibits.

The panel of nine women and three men has now spent the better part of four days and more than 20 hours on a case that admits the acts and argues only about criminal responsibility.

Options include first-degree murder, a lesser homicide verdict, or a finding that she lacked criminal responsibility. An NCR finding would not automatically mean she goes home. A judge can still commit her to a psychiatric facility if she is found dangerous.

Defense attorney Reddington has called the prosecution "a mess." Prosecutors have argued this was not a woman in the throes of psychosis so complete she could not form intent: she got her husband out of the house, she completed the killings, she chose a method that worked on the children and then a method that failed on herself.

That last detail is what Simpson needled and what Rogan would not romanticize. Whatever was happening in her mind, three children are dead and a crowd showed up to make her the protagonist.

None of that requires a street festival for the person who carried out the killings.

The "I could have been her" line is the tell. It converts a specific, horrific crime into a generic female grievance. Once that conversion is made, the children become props in a story about neglected women. The father becomes a suspect in the comment section. The exercise bands become a footnote.

A society that cannot say, without a thousand caveats, that strangling your five-year-old, your three-year-old, and your baby is an evil act has lost the plot. The jury may yet hang. The women in pink already have.
