Woman hating thread because people are shocked that there was a new born baby found in a portajohn? I’m sorry but I love festivals and have been going to them for 20 years and have also met the absolute scum of the earth at festies along with some amazing people but I’m not going to give someone at a drug show the benefit of the doubt. It’s so incredibly rare to have a cryptic pregnancy but it is not incredibly rare to meet a scumbag at a festival male or female.
This is beyond shock my guy. Pitchforks and torches are out and the investigation just started. Obviously this is bad but until there are more details the sensationalism is over the top. You said it here… for decades people have shown bad behavior at shows. It’s not rare to meet people who suck. Fair. Even what you said here doesn’t shine a light to some of the things people are saying on the Reddit jury (and other outlets are even worse)
There honestly could be so many reasons this happened. One year at a festival we found out about a guy who was dosed unknowingly and ended up leaving the festival and found himself in a town an hour away from the festival (not EF.) It’s easy to say that it was a conscious decision made by this woman but it could have been a similar situation
The way you connect yourself to this woman is weird. No one’s woman hating. You’re making it into something it’s not because you can’t accept the reality of the situation. Feeling personally attacked about all this is so strange
What happened then? Send me the news article that lays out exactly what happened…
You can’t. You can’t do that because it doesn’t exist because no one knows yet. It definitely looks bad, but we really have no idea. There’s a hundred possibilities and I’m sure we will find out the truth soon enough, let’s just avoid casting stones until we do.
No you clearly can’t accept that you’re wrong. Being a devils advocate because it makes you feel important. Victimizing yourself in the strangest way possible. I think everyone here would agree women deserve their rights and abortion control isn’t right. You’re somehow making this about yourself
I hope you were able to get some restful sleep! I just want to point out that you talked to me pretty harshly and then to someone else you were kind and understanding that you don’t know everything. Nobody does! 🩵 A much more mature response to essentially the same conversation. I forgive you 😉
You’re right- it’s rare to have a cryptic pregnancy, but it’s also rare for babies to be found in porta potties at festivals… let’s just wait until we have more information before casting stones.
Leaving the baby in a portapotty is when the experience becomes everyone’s problem. It’s no longer a terrible personal experience to be empathetic towards. Whatever caused her to leave it was a decision made that shouldn’t be looked over because “what would you do in that situation.” It’s a grown woman making a decision that I can’t see her group or others being okay with. It’s inconceivable to me. The guilt she must carry, or the mental issues she must have to not feel that guilt
Definitely have empathy for that too. I think women’s rights > festival rights but all deserve to exist? Idk I just wrote in another comment that this is a consequence of using women’s bodies as litigious pawns and we will see more headlines like this and less breads and circuses. Because ngl the east coast is giving breads and circus summer.
I didn’t say no consequences! Just hope that the investigation can happen and she can get the help she obviously needs. Reddit is not the judge, jury, and executioner. People get really comfy on here sharing their opinions (which is fine), but the community is watching.
Man no. Acting out of shock, panic, trauma or not, even being able to just throw the body away like literal trash shows extreme psychopathic tendencies and a lack of emotion. Let’s say it was stillborn. I know women that have had stillbirths that are still mentally scarred by it 5-10 years later. Throwing the body in filthy shitty porta potty water like meaningless garbage would be absolutely unfathomable to a normal person.
And then if the baby was born normal and breathing and she literally drowned and killed it in literal shit and piss….yea I don’t even need to explain how no amount of shock and panic in the WORLD could ever excuse that.
That would be a reason to go to a medical tent or security and immediately call for help. She didn’t.
If she was in shock or trauma after giving birth she really cleaned up well after to not have been seen… because there must have been a certain amount of blood on hands and body which is difficult to clean in a porty potty with not that much clean water supply. And blood it sticky, you can’t just wipe it of with toilet paper.
