    My wife started getting into it from Instagram crap and was talking about how it’s possible if not likely the husband actually did it.

    I took 5 minutes to find she’s not even saying she didn’t do it and that still doesn’t matter to her.

    I do not fucking get it, and was accused of being misogynistic for not thinking it was possible the husband did it.

    I can’t even with social media

      I live in the exact same scenario and have had at least two heated arguments with my wife about it. I guess it’s a mix of loss of trust in official sources, (quite reasonable) misandry, love for the drama… And in all of this, I still believe Clancy should get the insanity plea. There was a case in the country where I live that happened about twenty years ago, and the poor woman who ended up in jail is still used as the butt of the joke of memes about hating kids.

      I honestly don’t get how so any people feel they have a leg in this race.

      Personally haven’t been on any of the major platforms for years, but as an outsider looking in, I blame social media. It openly encourages this kind of mob behavior and amplifes the most insane voices with reckless abandon.

        Absolutely agree, I got off all social media except Reddit and then Lemmy when I realized how it was being used and the enshittification of course.

        I got her on reddit too years ago and that was better, but then the apipocalypse got us both off the platform and I went to Lemmy and she went to Insta. :/

        She’s gotten noticably more anti-men since too, I get it men fucking suck but she’s like straight up getting to a misandric level.

        Not to mention buying more beauty products from watching makeup tutorials and shit so frequently.

        Idk how to show her its warping her worldview
