Celebrating Murder is the Latest Social Media Craze

Why are people online celebrating Luigi Mangione and Lindsay Clancy—and what does that have to do with Massachusetts’ new abortion law? In this episode of The Deep End, Pastor Tim Hatch examines a disturbing cultural shift: killers becoming social media celebrities, victims being pushed aside, and sympathy replacing personal responsibility and justice. From the online fandom surrounding Luigi Mangione and the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson to the growing movement supporting Lindsay Clancy, Tim explores “forensic fandom,” victimhood culture, and why people increasingly sympathize with those who take innocent life. Then, Tim examines Gov. Maura Healey’s new Massachusetts abortion law, which changes the requirements for abortions at or after 24 weeks and places the decision within the physician’s professional judgment. What connects these stories? Tim argues that our culture is increasingly struggling to distinguish victim from perpetrator, compassion from moral confusion, and good from evil. “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” — Isaiah 5:20 Topics: Luigi Mangione • Lindsay Clancy • Brian Thompson • Maura Healey • Massachusetts abortion law • late-term abortion • forensic fandom • victimhood culture • biblical worldview The Deep End with Pastor Tim Hatch examines news, politics, and culture through a biblical worldview. ––––––––––––––– 🎙 The Deep End Podcast with Tim Hatch Faith.
