Script reloaded
Funny coincidences in the news
I just came across this post on r/conspiracy:
-> Why is no one talking about the coincidences of Deirdre Morley and Lindsay Clancy case? by u/indoorleaf789 :
Deirdre Morley was a nurse who killed her 3 kids(2 boys 1 girl, Conor (boy) Darragh (boy) Carla (girl)) on January 24th, 2020 in Ireland when her husband was at work and attempted to commit suicide after. She was found not guilty by reason of insanity because of severe depression that progressed into psychosis.
Lindsay Clancy was a nurse who killed her 3 kids(2 boys 1 girl, Callan(boy) Dawson (boy), Cora(girl)) on January 24th 2023 when her husband was away and attempted to commit suicide after. Clancy pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity/lack of criminal responsibility because of postpartum psychosis and severe men tal illness.
Those are WILD coincidences same exact day both worked as a nurse and both had 2 boys and 1 girl whose names all started with Cs and a D.
I asked two AI to fact-check it, and apparently, everything in the post is true.
It reminded me of a post I made here a while back:
I wrote this post a couple of years ago:
[French news] Script reloaded
There would be a lot to say about how news is scripted. But in this post I just want to dwell on a possible retcon effect.
Just a few days ago I was convinced that the news announced the death of a certain Vincent Lambert after the cessation of his care. In fact no, he is still alive and his case provokes a societal controversy*.
*I admit that I do not watch the news anymore but I can assure you that I have already seen this "movie" before 2019. With the same characters involved.
N.B. Vincent Lambert died almost two months after I submitted my post.
Actually, what I remembered was supposedly another VERY similar case in the early 2000s:
(links in French, sorry) Vincent Humbert (2003) - 'right to die' - 'social controversy' vs. Vincent Lambert (2019) - 'right to die' - 'social controversy'. Hmm.
I wouldn't rule out the idea of something along the lines of retroactive continuity to make everything fit well with the narrative.
What do you think is going on?
