there's a lot of debate around the case involving Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the
killing of her mother didi and there's one of two camps either you're with
gypsy or you're against gypsy but in this video I kind of want to talk about
what's going on and bring up the possibility of is Gypsy Rose Blanchard
manipulating us what is up everybody this is Chris from the rewired soul
where we talk about the problem but focus on the solution and if you're new
to my channel something I like to do is just pulled into topics from the news of
pop culture or sometimes the YouTube community I try to see what lessons we
can learn from them so the end of that stuff make sure you subscribe and ring
that notification bell so probably I'm guessing if you're watching this video
you know a bit about the Gypsy Rose Blanchard case she is currently in
prison right now for second-degree murder of her mother didi her boyfriend
is actually the one who did the act okay she talked him into it he's the one who
committed the murder all right anyways one of the reasons this happened was
gypsy was a victim of munchausen syndrome by proxy her mother made her
believe that she had all these different illnesses
she was very abusive she was very controlling all sorts of things and
Gypsies belief was that her only way out was through killing her mother all right
and I want to talk about this so I want to talk about kind of the history of
Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the possibility of us all being manipulated but I won't
bring out a couple things that I just keep saying just on various videos about
Gypsy Rose Blanchard including my own right something that just keeps
happening keeps happening over and over and over again is like two things one of
them is somebody said that I lack compassion excuse me I'm extremely
compassionate and I discuss this in one of the videos I did about Gypsy Rose
Blanchard like one of the things is is that I think we as a society need to
learn is that most people most most people don't just become criminals okay
anything from theft or you know drug trafficking to even things like even
worse like abuse and violence and things like that up to murder
if you look at most of these cases these people had a messed up childhood this is
one of the reasons why I believe in a few things like early intervention and
using prison as rehabilitation like we need to start realizing that most people
in prison had a messed up life I am very very compassionate towards that just as
personally as the son of an alcoholic mother and as somebody who was an
alcoholic an addict myself I know a lot of people who came through the addiction
treatments and I was working out who have very messed-up childhoods now the
second thing I want to talk about is the idea of that you know Gypsy Rose
Blanchard like this keeps coming up she did not kill her mother all right
it was the boyfriend that killed the mother you guys like holy crap okay
listen listen listen listen just man you look like Charles Manson didn't kill
anybody oh my god how dare you compare Gypsy
Rose Blanchard to Charles Manson okay I get it
but I just want to kind of put it in perspective for you Charles Manson was
an extremely manipulative man he created his little cult who went out and did
some mass murdering okay and he ended up going to prison for life for this thing
and like I don't know if you've learned about Charles Manson and his childhood
but it was not exactly a bed of roses okay he was originally named no name his
mother tried to trade him for a pitcher of beer he was sexually abused as a
child by so many different things happened to Charles Manson where you can
look at it and wonder okay were these circumstances were these circumstances
what turned Charles Manson into the monster that he became because I would
argue probably you know what I mean like I am of the opinion just you know I'm
not a psychologist or anything like that but just based on my own experience
working with people at the treatment center my own study a my own Reese
and everything there is more power in nurture than there is nature all right
and there are some people who are just born Psychopaths and things like that
but if you if you were to look at it statistically most people who become
criminals or do messed up things I had a messed-up childhood that's just the fact
so to say that Gypsy Rose Blanchard did not kill somebody she manipulated
somebody into killing somebody now what we need to understand if something I'm
gonna make a video about is like the cycle of how this goes on through
different generations right like there's been recent news about Gypsy Rose
Blanchard's grandmother you know Dee Dee's mother right and you can see how
this goes down the line but here's what we need to understand about Gypsy Rose
Blanchard it is ingrained in her as a survival mechanism to manipulate okay
like Gypsy Rose Blanchard since she was a child she was taught a few things she
was taught that lying is okay lying is a way of survival and how to manipulate
people all right now this isn't her fault this is not her fault in any way
shape or form this is what her mother taught her and
her mother was trying to survive and keep the line going but Gypsy Rose
Blanchard was taught how to lie and manipulate all right so she then in turn
took that and she used that to convince her boyfriend her then-boyfriend into
killing her mother so when I sit back and I look at the recent news and what's
going on you know her getting engaged her writing you know a letter to her her
fans I put fans in quotation marks because I
think you know even though I'm fascinated by like you know like serial
killers and cases like this and cults and stuff to say you are like a fan I'm
just like I don't know if I go that far but she does have some fans but she's
trying to convince your fans to write letters to try to get her really
released and like the issue that I see with this is is that nobody's looking at
the clear history of manipulation but nobody is looking at that all right and
I know that Gypsy Rose Blanchard is getting
to health treatment in prison probably not adequately for what she's been
through and this isn't something like that you just unlearn you know in a few
years right this takes a lot of time I have been sober for almost seven years
now and lie cheating manipulating was something that I had to do in order to
feed my addiction and it's something that almost seven years later where it's
still a struggle for me but you know like I try not to lie I try not to
manipulate there's so many things that I have worked on for years okay because
that's something that helps keep me sober so I'm in a little bit different
situation but but I don't think enough people are asking themselves like is it
possible that Gypsy Rose Blanchard is manipulating people because it is still
part of her own human behavior you see what I mean is it possible that she's
trying to develop empathy or sympathy not even empathy but empathy and
sympathy I guess to try to get people to understand why and like I think it just
becomes really apparent when I go through the comment section and it's I
think I think this wouldn't be such a concern for me if people had more of a
balanced argument right but from what I've seen in a lot of comments just
across the internet is just like yeah she should have killed her she's gonna
kill her there's nothing else she could have done she cooked she should've
killed her now if I'm playing devil's advocate against myself I would argue
yeah you know she didn't know of another way out she was you know she didn't know
what other options there were she was legitimately afraid to leave she thought
that her mother would just find her and bring her back she would convince these
people that she's incompetent I get it I get all of those things but I think it
just scares me that there there's a portion of humanity that believes that
like this was a 100% justified murder like that really scares me and I think
that's why I'm real passionate about this and I'm like holy
crap you know what I mean it's not like it's not like gypsy was like walking
down a dark alley and like somebody pulled like a knife on her and she had
to like kill the other person in order to survive like she could have left she
was afraid to leave because of what her mother had done but I just see a lot of
people justifying murder and that really scares me and I don't know if I'm alone
in this process so I would love to hear your thoughts down in the comments below
but like let's have a discussion about this like do you do you have anybody
who's manipulative in your life do you know anybody who used to be manipulative
and now they're not how long did it take them to get better because I think these
are things that we really need to think about when people are running to the
defense of somebody who convinced somebody to kill their own mother you
know what I mean like I don't know I just want to talk about this I love just
engaging in conversation but these are my thoughts so I would love to know
yours as well but like I said - I have other videos planned I want to talk
about just just kind of breaking the cycle of family abuse whether it's
verbal physical whatever it is I'm gonna make a video about that at some point -
