U.S. Troops Say They Were Ordered To BOMB Iranian CIVILIAN Infrastructure
One service member told MS NOW they raised concerns over strikes on bridges they did not believe were legitimate military targets.
Their superiors reportedly justified the targets as "dual-use," while the service member disputed that classification.
The service member is now seeking conscientious-objector status, saying the Iran war pushed them to question the legality and morality of their orders.
the nation writing this piece is insane. what a disappointment. a magazine founded by abolitionists. one of the only outlets in the western press that warned about the dangers of growing fascism in europe in the buildup to ww2
Earlier this year, an Iowa man was found not guilty of strangling his five year old son after it was ruled that he was suffering from severe psychosis at the time—the exact same defense as Lindsay Clancy. Right-wing grifters like Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Jack Posobiec didn’t have long, hysterical public tantrums about it then like we’re getting from them now about Lindsey Clancy. And the reason for that is that these people do not care about dead kids and shattered families. Losers like Walsh, Knowles, and Posobiec only care about the Clancy case because misogyny is powerful currency on the right that drives a lot of attention their way.
the Clancy case is proof that most of you would not make good jurors. it’s not your job as a juror to play morality police. you are strictly to examine the evidence presented in court & decide your verdict. not be the harbinger of what your opinion of justice is.
idc if lindsey clancy rots in prison or a psych ward but it’s legitimately funny how men see one woman in the male dominated field of annihilating their families and literally lose their minds. 227 recorded instances of men doing it between 2020 and 2023 btw
Women aren’t inspired by other women to become copycats of killers like men do.
Since the Columbine School shooting, there were over 100 copycats, nearly all male.
The idiots who think women will become LC Copycats are projecting exactly what men do every other day.
I’m a mother. I had severe postpartum OCD and anxiety. I know what it feels like to be terrified by your own brain after having a baby. I got through it because I had an incredibly supportive husband and a doctor who regularly called and texted to make sure I was okay.
Lindsay Clancy was asking for help too. In the four months before her children died, she was prescribed 13 different psychiatric medications by multiple providers, more than 30 prescriptions total.
Before you reduce this case to “evil mother,” ask why a postpartum woman could repeatedly seek psychiatric help, take that many medications, become increasingly unwell, and still end up at home in that condition.
And this is part of a much bigger problem. Our system is very good at writing prescriptions and much worse at actually supporting women postpartum. There is far more money in medication than there is in months of therapy, sleep support, home help, frequent follow-up, and someone actually looking at the whole person.
That does not mean psychiatric medication is bad. It saves lives. But if a woman is given 13 different medications in four months and is still deteriorating, “she was being treated” should not end the conversation. It should start a much harder one about why she was getting worse while everyone kept changing the prescription.
Postpartum psychosis is super rare, roughly 1–2 per 1,000 births, but it can involve hallucinations, delusions, and a complete break from reality.
You can grieve those children, hold the horror of what happened, and still recognize that this woman appears to have been failed long before that night.
If your only takeaway is hatred for the mother, you’re ignoring the part of this tragedy that could actually prevent the next one.
entire tl is about the Lindsay Clancy case and as much as i’m all for discussions and having opinions on real cases, i hate how some of y’all are minimizing postpartum psychosis. idc whether you believe her or not but you guys are acting so insensitive to a real mental illness
Why don’t men hold other men to the standard they hold #LindsayClancy ??
Where’s your outrage about the men who commit 95% of filicides and where is your demand for justice for their innocent children?
To basically anyone commenting on the Lindsay Clancy trial:
Some of you haven’t witnessed a loved one in acute psych drug withdrawal, not sleeping for days on end, not eating, screaming that it felt like their skin was burning off, screaming that it felt like their brain was being zapped, sitting in front of a bathroom mirror staring wide-eyed without saying anything, hallucinating that they are a teenager again, seeing demons and shadowy figures in the room, being in and out of psychiatric hospitals, and attempting suicide, and it shows.
Unless you’ve witnessed or experienced this, you really have no fucking clue.
