My experience with people who controls other people,

disrespecting their personal values, time, emotions.

 

 

It will remain that way.

 

It may be masked with politeness, with seemingly civil reasoning.

 

But there will always be a type of mind-gymnastics one will have to run,

always knowing that the 'other option' has been subjugated and dismissed

by power, and chasing after in order to correct this.

 

That kind of gaslighting, is not considered abuse in some cultures.

 

It is simply the norm.

 

 

I cannot be part of this.
