Oprah Audience Calls For 'Same Passion' For Black Child-Killers As For Lindsay Clancy

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity News,

Oprah Winfrey flew into Massachusetts to host a "watershed" conversation about Lindsay Clancy.

What the cameras captured was not a sombre conversation regarding her three dead children. It was a room brainwashed into treating a child-killer as a ideological cause - and then demand the same energy for black women who have murdered their kids.

Yes really. The takeaway from this particular creepy corner of culture is no longer "killing your children is unthinkable." Rather, it is "lets make sure we support child killers of color just as much as white child killers."

As we now know, Clancy strangled her three children - 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan - with exercise bands in the family basement on January 24, 2023, then cut herself and jumped from a second-story window. She has never denied the killings. Her defense argued postpartum psychosis and a lack of criminal responsibility. Prosecutors said the acts were planned. After 21 days of testimony and more than 80 witnesses, the jury hung. A mistrial was declared in early September.

Days later Oprah's podcast put the case on a soundstage with medical experts, legal voices, a former colleague who testified at trial, and women describing their own postpartum breakdowns. Official branding called it "Understanding Postpartum Psychosis." The clip that detonated online was something else entirely.

A doctor in the room told the audience she wanted the same passion for women "who don't look like Lindsay."

Okaaaaaay. "Passion"?

"I want us to have the same passion for people who don't look like Lindsay, who don't have her same access... who don't have her same access and education, her melanin, her privilege," she said.

Right, you can see where this is going.

"There are women of color sitting around this country in prisons for this same thing that we've never heard of. And I just want to remind us to have the pink shirts and the energy for them as well."

The room cheered.

What the actual fuck is this? It's demented.

The moral argument slid, in one breath, from mental-health treatment to racial bookkeeping for filicide. Not "stop this." Not "the children come first." The demand was representation - pink shirts and energy for other mothers who killed their kids.

Once the killer is recast as the victim, the next move is to complain that some victims of this new compassion have the wrong skin tone.

AND OF COURSE they're trying to make child murder"more racially inclusive" now.

Throw this whole timeline into the Sun. It needs to be purged https://t.co/HSyi8sr3df

If you tried to write the darkest possible parody of this movement, I don't think you could do much better than "it's important to support child-stranglers of color" https://t.co/S0a48D8gLi

There was a break in the madness. A young woman stood up and said the sentence the rest of the room had spent an hour avoiding.

"I do believe she's a murderer..."

Oprah answered: "After all you've heard today?"

Oprah Brought together a bunch of crazy ass women to normalize what Lindsay Clancy did...

One young woman wasn't buying it, and stood up amongst the crowd, and she brought the entire room to silence.

Belief that a mother who strangled three small children is a murderer was treated as a failure to absorb the program. The safe answer in that room was not the names Cora, Dawson and Callan. It was the sermon: hormones, sleep, the medical system, "access," "melanin," "privilege."

Mothers are supposed to be the safest place for children. That used to be the one thing that did not require a panel debate.

The rest of the taping ran on the same track: identification with Clancy, regardless of the murdered children.

One woman described hearing a man's voice whispering in her ear to drown her baby. The camera found tears on cue.

In an effort to sympathize with Lindsay Clancy, woman who says she had postpartum depression says she heard the voice of a man whispering in her ear to drown her baby.

Another told Oprah she sat in her son's bedroom and saw his toys as weapons. She played out strangling him in her mind. When Clancy's case hit the news, she said she recognized the same intrusive thoughts. "The reason my story ended differently is because who my husband is," she stated.

Oprah told her she had "a lot of courage."

Oprah:
You have a lot of courage.

Woman:
Before I was hospitalized— I sat in my son's bedroom and I saw all of their toys as weapons. I played out in my mind me strangling my son.

And when I saw that play out in real life with Lindsay Clancy, I said this is a lady who had the... https://t.co/hj2Mwcj2l7 pic.twitter.com/Fk6UJPGwyK

A third guest said she began hearing voices telling her that her daughter was the second coming of Christ and that she wanted to rewrite the Bible. She said she improved after 17 days in a hospital. The point of the story, in that room, was kinship with Clancy.

An 'expert' then offered "Society expects women to be perfect. So what are we supposed to do? This bliss-myth of what it is to be a mother is so society engrained, it's very hard to ask for help."

Most mothers have been exhausted. Most mothers have not treated their children as a problem to be solved with an exercise band.

Ladies... I'm listening to this thing Oprah hosted and it is absolutely scary insane to me— the common theme they're trying to push is that hormones and sleep deprecation is a justifiable reason for women to murder their children.

Most of you have had kids. Did you ever once... https://t.co/QVZFCIgboX

The pink-shirt movement formed outside Plymouth Superior Court. In mid-August, hundreds of women in pink treated Clancy's van like a homecoming. Organizer Renee Kimball said, "I think that every one of us women believe that it could be any one of us." She added that women who have dealt with anxiety, depression and postpartum "just know that any one of us could be sitting in her chair."

Days earlier the same scene was already apparent online: TikTok mothers filming themselves relating to a confessed child-killer while holding their own babies, a GoFundMe for Clancy's parents swelling toward seven figures, and comment threads that talked more about her treatment than about the murdered kids.

Bill Maher, no MAGA activist, asked the question the pink crowd still will not. "What I don't get is why does she have fans?" He compared the courthouse scene to the folk-hero treatment of Luigi Mangione. He could grant that postpartum illness is real. He could not explain the merch, the cheers, or the need for a fandom.

Joe Rogan was less delicate. "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 added that if she walks, "her supporters should have to let her babysit."

Prosecutors in Frankfort, Illinois, say Corie Walsh hanged her 2-year-old son, Barrett, from a basement rafter, then tried to kill herself. She told police the boy was the "devil" and the "anti-Christ." Witnesses said she had become "very invested" in the Clancy trial and was still texting friends about it hours before the child was found.

Meanwhile the living victim of the original crime - Patrick Clancy, the father who came home to three dead children - has been hunted online by the same ecosystem. His attorney, Howard Cooper, said Patrick and his family have been "subjected to a relentless, escalating and destructive defamation campaign" from "minor celebrities, so-called influencers and outright conspiracy theorists." Cooper's demand was simple: "Enough is enough - this spread of blatant and baseless falsehoods must stop."

Lindsay confessed. Nobody in the courtroom argued Patrick did it. The pink movement needed a villain who was not the woman with the bands in her hands, so they invented one.

Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz has said "This case has always been about those three children. We are here today because they are not."

Latarsha Sanders was convicted in 2022 in the same county, before the same judge, of stabbing her sons Edson, 8, and La'son, 5, in their Brockton apartment in 2018. Prosecutors said the boys were found in bed after being stabbed roughly 100 times between them. Sanders received two mandatory life terms.

Erin Merdy of Brooklyn pleaded guilty this year to drowning her three children - Zachary, 7, Liliana, 4, and 3-month-old Oliver - in the ocean near Coney Island in 2022. Relatives had said she may have been struggling with postpartum depression. A judge sentenced her to 20 years to life. Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said, "No sentence can fully measure the loss of a seven-year-old, a four-year-old and a three-month-old baby, or the grief their loved ones will carry forever."

None of this requires a studio audience to cheer a racial audit of child murder.

A movement that cannot say "do not kill your children" without attaching a demographic rider has abandoned all morality.
