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.

Those three jurors who were wearing pink, they had to walk past these people in front of the courthouse. It might show where their minds were. Solidarity with those people. It influenced them or were they already of that mindset.
So the sub section of the coming civil war is men versus women. Years of selfish, narcissistic feminists who degraded men, ignored the male kids raising their hand in elementary school, told boys after a divorce (happened to me) “You’re just like your father” (meaning worthless), TV ads of a bumbling and useless male being set straight by an admirable and wise woman....have made men and children low on the women’s value list.
Putting off marriage and children for years is only a step above killing preborn babies by casual abortions supported by feminists.
So males have to defend children.
Question someone said is now indirectly asked on dates by males: “If we have children would you kill them someday?”
Note: The good women on FR aren’t like that.
Obviously the Salem witch trials failed to cleanse the Massachusetts gene pool.
Well the good news is that UMass actually won a football game.
Jurors wearing pink is cause for a mistrial. As a person who experienced jury duty, a juror is suppose to be impartial. Wearing pink shows solidarity with the defendant. A mistrial is in the future.
Good for Joe Rogan. These pink Lindsey Clancy fans - and the dumbass Luigi fans - are beyond despicable.
Obviously all those stupid women have KILLED THEIR OWN KIDS!
Regards,
I watched the closing arguments and the ADA laid out the absolute case for 1st degree murder. The camera kept showing Lindsay and she was pretty much expressionless while everyone watching with me was tearing up. Yes, there might be a mental issue that yields a different verdict, but does post-partum depression make a psychopath?
I flash back to The Bridge Over the River Kwai and that scene near the end with “oh my God, what have I done?” Why did this not kick in after she killed her eldest son???
How nuts was she to do this in the one state in the union that make the prosecution prove she was sane instead of the burden for proving insanity resting with the defense.
“I watched the closing arguments and the ADA laid out the absolute case for 1st degree murder.”
I saw the closing arguments, too, and it made me sick to my stomach, and made me cry. I wish I hadn’t seen that video.
Many of the Lindsay Clancy fans are merely being true to their conviction that Killing your children is a “right” in America now.
We have given these AWFLs a pass for too long. They are demented and should be shunned by all true Americans.
“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.

I agree with this sentiment completely.
I don’t care what your reasons for it were, a psychotic break is still psychosis.
You can jack me up or block all kinds of hormones in my body, and even screw around with my neurochemistry, and I might behave differently than I normally do, but I’m not running out and murdering people, let alone my own children.
