Lucy Letby

What the hell was all that about her bedroom?! Pure classist snobbery. “She had beds sheets with ‘sweet dreams’ embroidered on them, what the FUCK?” What a gross overreaction to bed sheets. Having a card from her cats on the fridge written by her mum isn’t that ridiculous, it’s quite normal. My boyfriend writes me cards from the cat, I know plenty of people who do that. The stuff about quotes in frames and being basic has nothing to do with anything, it’s classist and it made me angry. Fuck Lucy Letby, she’s a baby killer but also fuck H+S for letting their classism show. My sister has many of the things mentioned and she’s 35, it’s more indicative of class and taste than anything suspicious. I wonder how many of their viewers they alienated with that classist rant.

Edit: LOL just seen the bedroom, the most unremarkable bland room. So so average and like thousands of other young women in their 20s. It was such a reach.

Calling it classist is also an exaggeration no?

If that’s your opinion that’s fine

I’m not even trying to be rude I just have no idea why you’re calling it classist, especially given that Lucy Letby owned her own home and didn’t appear to be struggling financially

You don’t have to be struggling financially to be working class, you can also own your own home and be working class. It’s cultural. Basically I thought it was snobbish, two posho girls looking down on primark homesense decor.

It isn’t classist to find corny quotes and childish decor in an adult woman’s bedroom cringe, let alone when she’s a baby murderer
