In texts revealed by Radar Online, the fan, Rachel asked Leah for details about the cult. But then Kailyn Lowry swooped into DM the fan to warn her not to join!
“The cult thrives on belittling people and making them feel less than if they don’t do those classes,” Kailyn said. “I don’t want to see young moms do it and spend their savings on this. It’s not cheap.”
When Rachel revealed to Leah that Kailyn had DMed her, Leah wrote, “I can call you in a little lol This has gotten out of hand,” sounding very annoyed.
Apparently, things between Leah and Kailyn got tense. Leah eventually responded to the whole thing, saying that it was just a fight and she and Kailyn have worked things out.
But since Kailyn is worried about the welfare of others, this anti-vax post has us worried about her own welfare!
Kailyn reposted an image from the Instagram account @thetruthaboutvaccines which featured a picture of Anne Frank, a young girl who was a victim of the Holocaust.
The text above the image read, “The law is not a moral compass.” “The people who hid Anne Frank were breaking the law. The people who killed her were following it,” read the text superimposed on the picture.
“We speak out now or hide later,” read the caption on the original post.
A fan on reddit reshared the story, and fans were less than pleased with it.
“Yiiiiiikes that is an extremely cringe-worthy comparison! You can believe whatever you want. Fine,” one user wrote. “But if you’re that confident in what you believe in, you don’t use something like that to justify yourself. Chill out, Kail.”
“This is disgusting, an insult to the memory of millions of people who were murdered,” wrote another.
“I think it’s offensive both to Holocaust victims AND people who died from diseases vaccines eradicated!” a third commented responded.
A major issue with this post altogether is that Anne Frank, although died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, was not murdered in the camp. The young girl, along with her sister Margot, died of illness. Numerous diseases, including typhoid fever, were spreading rapidly throughout the camp and victims were not treated for the illnesses.
“Anne Frank, her sister Margot and hundreds of thousands of others died of Tyfus [sic] and Typhoid fever (among other things like starvation),” commented a reddit fan.
“Typhoid fever has a vaccine, typhus has one – but it’s not commercially available,” another user followed.
The backlash to this (highly insensitive) post is unlikely to deter Kail from her beliefs, but it is important to know that a) vaccinations are not genocidal action and b) Anne Frank died of illness, which is exactly what vaccines have been invented to prevent. To compare the two is ridiculous.
