She actually went by Rose when she was in prison, and I think she planned to do so when she got out but she was so well known by her birth name and chose to do social media when she got out, so she capitalized on it

As someone that only found that out like a year ago, it's the farthest thing from common knowledge, so I'm very glad you shortened her name. People use that word a LOT. There's a pepper named after it, there's a moth named after it. Way too many things named after it. When I found out I was floored because of how pervasive and widespread romani discrimination is. And by how vocal people are about their racism. And most people don't even know about it.

You won’t use someone’s literal name, but you’re okay with using misogynistic slurs like “b*tch” less than a minute into the video. Misogynistic slurs are completely acceptable, even funny, but all other slurs can’t be said at all? Why?

​@whirlybird6822 she was taking the life of her kid. turnabout is fair play

exactly this!! even if she did have some other skills, her case is so known that she could lead a normal life w/o people recognizing her, and even if that somehow wasn't the case try to get someone to give you a job as a former prisioner in the US (even I know this and I'm not from there). Being a celebrity can be no fun, we have a few high profile cases like Britney Spear's or Jeanette McCurdy's to prove that already. This woman wasn't made famous because she sang or was an actress in a famous show, she was made famous for the horrific trauma that she underwent as a kid that eventually drove her to murder.

This is exactly what I thought. Like isn't it especially difficult to get a job as a former convict in the US? She obviously had a fan base and support, and she did the smart thing of trying to capitalize on that. If she didn't, she's be criticized for that too.

The same as anyone else in her situation whose case didn't get this type of coverage supports themselves.

I'm a person who likes true crime and into it and I've always found it weird that people can have a "favorite serial killer" like, serial killers are real people who have done real horrible things to people why should anyone feel like that like as if the people involved are fictional characters (Same thing even exists with reality shows where real people are referred to as "characters"). I like true crime from the aspects of psychology and societal commentary on how people can do such awful things and how circumstances as well as both internal and external factors can lead to such things happening, not treating it like it's a fun game. While I can understand how true crime can get pointed to specifically for voyeuristic treatment of the subject matter but honestly us humans overall tend to have voyeuristic tendencies on wanting to know everything about something to the point where it becomes a toxic fixation on it. G. Rose has been through enough with her abusive, r*pist (like she was a product of her mother, an adult woman, essentially r*ping a teenage boy) and overall nasty human being of a "mother" she shouldn't have people treat her like a OC avatar

honestly true crime channels always struck me as disrespectful to victims and the horrible things that happen to them by putting them in the same vein as "haha funny ayylmaos and scary skeleton monssters" type ghost stories

Just the thought of people having fan theories on horrible crimes is rather nasty

I've never heard that quote before but im using that for life because it's so accurate and it puts into words how I feel about so many bizarre interactions we as a species have with each other thanks to the internet.

​@@astral_hazeDon't lump all true crime fans into a box. I know a lot of true crime fans, I'm a true crime fan, and I've met literally one disrespectful person out of the many I know irl. And the disrespectful one I know is disrespectful about literally everything, she's just a bad person

Its extra disturbing when you hear her interviews confessing how conflicted she felt after her captor committed suicide, its honestly so horrifying for her, stockholm syndrome messes you UP

THIS!!! A MILLION TIMES THIS!!! You absolutely hit the nail on the head!! For the internet's insistence that they understand/support victims and survivors of abuse and get on their soapboxes to condemn abuse to a crowd, they will just as quickly turn on us (speaking as a victim of childhood emotional abuse) when we don't embody their idea of "The Perfect Victim" or they think they've caught us in a contradiction, and have uncovered the "truth" that we were "lying the whole time", or they choose not to believe us in the first place because they're bitter cynics and question why we didn't fight or confront or try to escape or tell others about our abusers - then they conclude that "it must not have been that bad" or we're "lying for attention" while bitterly complaining about how we're languishing in our victimhood for "not getting over" our trauma simply because we choose to open up about it. It's an exhausting, never-ending cycle of randos deciding that *they* are the judges who get to determine how bad our trauma is and was, how often we can speak about it, how quickly we need to be moving on from it, and if we really *are* traumatized or were actually abused in the first place, and proceed to constantly move the goalposts to suit *their* needs, while participating in a continuous circlejerk with others like them about what great allies they are to victims and survivors of all types of abuse. They truly do not care about us, because - you're right, they DON'T see us as human. We're nothing more than props to make them look more sympathetic and like good people. I did not experience the same type of extreme abuse as G.Rose, but I can sympathize with how devastating it can be to not only have your childhood turned into a living hell - but to have that knowledge that it was your parent that chose to do that to you, as well as that heartbreaking realization that the person who is supposed to protect you, love you unconditionally, and help you thrive could be so cruel as to hurt/harm you or put you in harm's way for their own selfish gain... and claim that it's for *your* benefit, *your* own good, or that they're doing it because they love and care about you. All I want for her is what I want for other victims and survivors - as well as myself: happiness, wholeness, and healing.

I hope this doesnt come across as annoying/pedantic, I just think these distinctions are really important. What you're referring to is likely trauma bonding, which is a psychological phenomenon where a victim feels bonded to their abuser through the pain their abuser inflicts on them. It's not specific to kidnapping cases and it's something that happens over a long period of time, whereas Stockholm syndrome is a pseudo-scientific term invented to explain away why hostages in a bank robbery were defensive over one of the robbers (who they felt was also coerced into the situation and was looking out for them) and angry at the police who endangered them through a mixture of incompetence and lack of concern for civilian life. ​@juliak6224

@@rampion1228 the term trauma bonding is mostly used in situations where the victim has the literal physical freedom to escape the situation while stockholm syndrome refers moreso to captive situations or situations where someone cant escape as easily. its trauma bonding when your boyfriend is abusive but you still stay with him even though you dont live together or share a bank account or have kids blah blah blah. its stockholm syndrome when that boyfriend is now your husband and you share all of your assets and he doesnt allow you to leave the house alone or see your family without permission and he made you quit your job so you have no income to fall back on if you were to divorce and you now have two kids who you want to not grow up in a broken home so you idealize him even though he beats you when you speak out of line because literally what other option do you have? words change meaning through time and usage and its much easier to accept common usage than to fight the losing battle of "well, actually". anyways, tldr, they didnt use the word wrong lol

@herb4n7egend fair enough but I wasn't trying to be well actually lol I have strong feelings about the term Stockholm syndrome not being used because it was created to degrade victims and cover police brutality, that's not me being pedantic I think it's important to have a new term if the distinction is important.

If rehabilitation was the focus of prisons, this might have crossed someone’s mind. But since they’re more about punishment, they don’t support anyone getting out in the way they should be. Not to mention the heinous lack of any actual supports while people are incarcerated.

Agree. Plus, DeeDee intentionally changed her name. Iirc it was for attention to claim that her dad was abusive. Like, if I was Rose I'd consider my own name to be just another reminder of that and would want it changed anyway. So like. But yeah they give people like those boys who killed James Bulger new identities, but won't give one to Rose?

I doubt Blanchard would have been fine with that. Being an Attention Sop is LITERALLY the only life she's ever known. It's going to go very badly for her when all that good will runs out, which is will sooner rather than later.

@@JosieBirdArtpeople also tend to forget that a parents abuse doesn’t end when you turn 18, unless you go no contact. Yes the older you get, the more distance you can put between yourself and your parents. But they will still use their abusive tactics to manipulate you, they just don’t have as much power over you any more. It still hurts and it makes it difficult to heal from the childhood trauma when it continues into adulthood. There’s also always the possibility for abusive parents to change, and that’s ofc the best case scenario (no one truly wants to go no contact with their parents, but for some it’s just necessary to protect themselves.) but unfortunately very few people change in this aspect, and even that can bring its challenges because you can feel resentment for them not being able to do better for you until you were already an adult.

It shows a shocking lack of understanding of economics as well as the psychological/emotional effects of abuse. It’s not as if there are just free job training programs and other resources for people escaping these situations. Or apartments that rent to people who don’t already have a job… there are SO many hurdles, but some will still say that if she was over 18, she could leave

As a DV survivor I had to throw away my phone and hop on a bus to NYC where I stayed with my family up there until it was time for me to file a restraining order and appear in court. But I spent 6 months planning my escape. I wouldn’t even use my PC, I would use the work computer, since the non profit I worked for at that time provided resources for DV victims. I count every day of my life as a gift, because I’m 42 now and if I stayed, I know I wouldn’t have made it past 30.

TLDR got a little personal sorry 😂 Another thing is, especially if you’re a minor, and your abuser is one or both parents, a family member or person you live with... they can lure you back. It’s not a kid’s fault for trusting their parent when their parent says they’ll stop. When their parent always gets them ice cream after a really bad fight, when their kid is stony eyed with teary cheeks and a child’s memory recall and compartmentalization; when they hold you and weep and say they’ll stop for good this time. I ran away a couple times. My friend’s house didn’t have my mom in it, but it was strange and unknown, it didn’t have any of my comfort foods and our cat wasn’t there. I missed my stuff. I missed my dad. So when he called 3 days later and said my mom was really sorry, and asked if I wanted to get food with him? I did. I did want to do that. I wanted my mom to be really sorry this time. My stuff was in a backpack because I’d just walked out my front door and hidden down the road to call my friend. It was easy to go home. It was easy to go back to how it was. Mom stopped until she didn’t. That wasn’t the last time I ran away or attempted to. I spent the majority of sleepovers and after school time at my best friend’s house, and I’d run away and move out several more times before being able to move out sort of, for good. Spent years grinding my mental health to dust in college and I’d never even thought of how it kept me out of my parents house before over how gross I later found the pressure to be Good At College. I tried to take us to family therapy. I tried to yell back. I was a kid, then I was an adult, now I’m almost 30. Kids aren’t given the tools to leave. Kids especially kids in complex abuse, lifelong complex abuse, love their parents. We’re supposed to love and trust our parents. It’s never the target’s fault they couldn’t or can’t leave. If you’re going through anything like this, things you might not even understand are abuse now, you don’t deserve to be treated like that, and how you’re being treated isn’t normal❤

That is such a good quote. It also helps with victim healing and growth when you are more realistic about how the traum informs the way you act currently. When i was trapped in abuse I was awful, i was resentful, I sat and imagined killing him, and the abuse has made me this overly giving person who cannot set boundaries but then gets resentful when people take the help and love I offer so readily. There was no mutual abuse, I was tortured, but that perfect victim who can do no wrong just doesnt exist, my trauma affected the way I and and the patterns and habits I keep but I’m still in control of my actions and expect to be held accountable the same as others if I’m being a dick

Honestly, it’s insane that so many professional let the abuse slide. What a condemnation of the modern state of American healthcare that all you have to do to get away with child abuse is make your kid salivate and lie about your medical history being destroyed.

​​@@lindenshepherd6085Based on what I've heard about it, I understand your frustration with the American healthcare system. But as someone from a country with a robust healthcare system, I just wanted to say that it's not that simple. My mother was a victim of Munchausen by proxy, and she is not the only victim I've ever met. Unfortunately, it can happen anywhere and figuring out that the caregiver is lying is much more difficult than you may think. The deceit can keep going for years on end for a reason. To add to that: it is also not something new.

It's insane what the mother did to her own daughter. Literally gaslit her into believing that she was younger than she actually was and terrorised her to the point she couldn't escape. The doctors should definitely have stepped in and some of them did before Dee Dee just dropped them and went onto the next expert.

Because saying that someone has Munchausens has long term and life long consequences. Doctors don't want to get sued if they're wrong. Because when they are wrong and acuse good mothers of munchausens, their kids are taken away and they have to be investigated intensely. Which from what I heard is really tough on those mothers who's children are taken away because of a wrong accusation. Yes, if a doctor had made the accusation, G Rose could have been taken away from her mother and put in a better place away from her. OR, Rose's mother would have sued the shit out of the Doctors and they'd get harassed for "refusing to treat a cancer patient" which is all very bad for their careers. Nothing is ever in black and white. The Doctors had a right to also look after their own safety and security because no one is going to back them if they mess up. This is just the reality Doctors live in the US- if anything goes wrong you could be sued and lose the job you've been working for years and might not be rehired again if fired. Secondly, Rose's mother was a narcissist and very good actor. No one realizes that when people play a character/act pitiable, people flock to them and believe them. It was the Doctors word against the mothers. In this case the only reason Rose's mom got away with it for so long is because she played and act and was believable, and we believed her. As far as I'm concerned, the person that caused all this pain is dead and can't hurt anyone else anymore. I dont blame the doctors, and I don't blame Rose.

@@lindenshepherd6085Her medical history was actual destroyed in hurricane Katrina (although she did lie about the content of those records, she didn’t lie about them being destroyed), which also destroyed hundreds of other people’s medical records. Because of this, doctors had no reason to believe that she was lying because they had hundreds of other patients in her exact same position. And retesting every patient to confirm their alleged medical history would’ve taken a very long time and a lot of money for an area already struggling after a catastrophic hurricane. Additionally, a policy like that would prevent actual ill people from receiving help they needed more than ever. So, as a doctor, what do you do? Assume patients are incorrect about their history and spend time and money you don’t have retesting them, delaying them getting important medical help, alongside an increased case load due to the short and long term effects of the hurricane? Or take patients at their word? I’m not saying the doctors didn’t make mistakes that we should learn from, but I think we should criticize them accurately. And I also think it’s easy for us to criticize complicated situations from the present. Every disabled person has firsthand experiences how horrible the medical system already is and how hard it is to get help. Instituting policies that make disabled people jump through more hoops to get care may prevent cases like G.Rose’s, but you’re also going to be harming and potentially killing thousands of disabled people. How do we help one group of vulnerable people without hurting another? Abusers are incredibly good at taking advantages of systems meant to help their victims, so any steps we take against the systems that allow their behavior are also going to inevitably get people caught in the crossfire. Does that mean I think we shouldn’t fix the system? Hell no, it sucks. But if we aren’t aware of who gets hurt by our actions we’re just creating more abuse and avenues for abusers.

shit maybe I need to try that EMDR shit it sounds kinda effective

And the belief that she's in control of the celebrity that public is granting her sound too much like her mother and grandfather's reasoning for their behavior.

Plus she was getting celebrity forced on her from the moment she left prison. People in that situation can either try to take some control over how they're represented or they can just sit tight, relinquish control over their own identity and hope that they don't get misrepresented by the masses. The first option doesn't often work, but at least they might get paid for it. It reminds me of the animosity towards people who became memes for other (more innocuous) reasons and then tried to own it for themselves. The social media theatre audience doesn't seem to like it when somebody who's been made viral for whatever reason claims any fame for themselves. Viral subjects are expected to be the butt of the joke, not the head of the narrative.

Plus, her case is extremely famous. There is no way for people to hear the name Rose Blanchard, see her face, and not immediately know the most intimate, painful details of her life after a quick Google search. Any potential employer could immediately find out all about it. I honestly don't see how she could get out of that aside from changing her name and leaving the public eye entirely.

I don’t think she should’ve been raised up and I don’t think anyone should have expectations of her to b a perfect victim. But this was all so predictable and it led to her own abusive ways being uncovered. Ppl should’ve let her b released and do what other convicts do, and find normal work and lay low, u can’t b a murderer and a celebrity and expect ppl not to call out how idolising someone who has taken someone from the planet and showing no remorse for the person she abused into carrying out the act is wrong.

@@RhianChamberstbh i don't expect her to think rationally or logically anytime soon

I have ex felons in my family and they were able to find work; mainly because they're resourceful people

@@RhianChambers First of all, the piece of scum that she had as an excuse of a mother does not deserve anyone's sympathy whatsoever. Second, you're literally ignoring her mental state and saying "wHy CAn't She fIND a nOrmAL jOb". She's not just a convict, that woman has some serious issues to deal with before she can be able to even start a regular part-time job and keep herself stable.

​@@bondrewdthenovel510 were they apart of a famous murder case? Be fr she is NOT like most felons. She has an extremely recognizable face and name, shell never be able to live a completely normal life.

Thank you for saying that. Being an abuse survivor highly impacted my life and behavior as a young girl and teen and even as an adult. I now strive to break the cycle. I gave up two daughters to a better home because their father and our families were toxic and dysfunctional. I swore to myself that I will get better. But I don't know if I can ever completely heal or be truly happy again. I have crippling anxiety and don't have a job. And have PTSD .I am being stalked from my ex partner and I am struggling to cope in a healthy way. I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts. Thank you.

@@Stubbornclarity my heart goes out to you ❤️ I admire the things you’re doing to try to change things and to do what’s best for you and your kids. I recognize that you may have done some things you wish you could have done differently, and I think you would have done differently if you’d had the support that you needed. I realize that social services are better in some places than others, and that they’re rarely perfect, but I hope there are some affordable supports you can find (whether that be around mental health, physical health, housing, food, etc.) I do know that, unfortunately, your story is way more common than it should be. Women who have been through what you’ve been through and have managed to get to a better place will often want to help others who are going through the worst of it. If there are any women’s centers or women’s support groups around you, definitely check out what they have to offer. Sending lots of love your way and wishing you the best ❤️

@@vaporeonice3146 aww 🥰 you're so sweet! Thank you. God bless you 💛

ME AND YOU FUCKING BOTH I HATE PEOPLE WHO ACT SO HIGH AND MIGHTY TOWARDS SURVIVORS!! Truly detest people that choose to be rude and ignorant or straight up ignore and pretend like this sick abuse is nonexistent just because they got to live the perfect good life!

Same. I used to love true crime, I would watch those videos/shows for hours. But looking at myself more critically, and looking at why true crime content is made (and why I watched it), and have stepped back.

literally

Fr their hair is so pretty ❤

This is one of the only channels I've seen where she's offered any compassion at all. Very sad

I will say a prayer for him. Here's hoping he gets the right kind of intervention! You're a gem 💎 to have cares for him with such dignity and respect.

@@Stubbornclarity Thank you for keeping him in your thoughts. He is one of the main reasons that I am in grad school right now to be a school psychologist. More people need to exist to try and catch and stop people like this.

@@TBNOLA good luck with everything! I pray that you get a great well paying job!

She didn’t even snap though, she tried again and again to escape and eventually made a plan that worked. The escalation was intentional and it did get her freedom in the end

She didn't snap she planned and manipulated someone else into helping her while having enough freedomr to buy lingerie, wigs, make up, bang in a theater bathroom. Y'all are wild for not reading court docs there's a reason she was given and took a plea deal.

@@trashbasket11"manipulated" youare the ones who is uninformed if this is the conclusionyou reached. Not only was he happy to do it, we was fantasizing about it and even tried to R the body afterwards. Rose had to beg him not to and so he did it to her instead. She did nothing wrong

​@@trashbasket11 yeah I'm sure a guy who was already arrested for beating his schlong in a mcdonalds and already had violent fantasies was manipulated into hurting someone. Sureeee

I think it was more about the weird Nazi furries considering the headline shown. Most furries are fine tho, I just see them as mascots of goofy happiness

I assure you, the nazi furs/free fur all is not a good representation of the fandom, like at all. The majority of the fandom believes and advocates for the exact opposite of alt right rhetoric. Considering how the headline used in the video said “furries speak out against”, we really do call out shit like that when it happens. We promote acceptance, especially of queer people. I suppose the creator of this video could’ve meant it as a spectrum, furries being the good side. But yeah I agree, that’s what it seems like.

Isn’t her mother dead? How is that not the upmost repercussion.

​@@JL_LuxI mean, I guess it depends on your own personal viewpoint, but I would say that death isn't justice, nor is it punishment. You have to be alive to face actual consequences for things, as far as we know. Deedee is not currently serving time for the years of abuse she put her daughter through, she is just dead. She didn't actually live to see proper legal punishment for her actions. This is why a lot of mass shooters and stuff kill themselves - to avoid punishment. Dying is often thought to be an easier way out than actually having to serve time, which you see in some sentencings of criminals who could qualify for the death penalty. Deedee is just dead, and Gypsy has to live out the rest of her life with both the trauma her mother caused her and the guilt of her death. I wouldn't call that fair

Deedee got the easy way out, for all she put her daughter through. Just look at some of the medical procedures she had to endure, especially the salivary gland removal and stomach tube insertion. Not to mention the malnourishment and enabling SA from Rose’s grandfather. It’s insane that she was able to do this to a child and not serve time.

@@redbluebae4397 people not wanting to be called a racist slur by people outside that group isn't "rebranding". would you say the same of black people?

​@@redbluebae4397"black people are just rebranding from being called the n-word" stfu man

This!! And just to add because not many people know this and it's good to bring awareness: romani people were also victims of the holocaust, in large numbers. Basic respect is the least we can do
