This is what I wrote to Dr. Breggin: Dr. Breggin, your comments are too simplistic. Eleanor Roosevelt said, “A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes..." I worked with victims of domestic violence. To become survivors rather than victims, they had to accept responsibility for their own denial and, sadly, their own reasons for staying. I encouraged them to decide that they were worthy of not being abused. It begins at that base level. Their recovery involved their becoming strong enough to accept the reality that although their partners were charming and sometimes seemed, "nice," they were actually psychopaths. In the meantime, I worked to have the abusers arrested. Former victims went on to establish healthy relationships and meaningful careers. This black and white world in which you live is not reality. Domestic violence is not all the responsibility of the abusers -- the victims are not at fault, but they do play a role when they are unable and or unwilling to leave.
Vaccinated folks who are not strong enough to look at reality, which is all Mattias asks of them, at some point, leave victimhood for volunteerism. Many I have seen will die defending Fauci. Pointing that out is not blaming the victim. We can have compassion for victims while simultaneously encouraging them to step out of victimhood. That is not a "hateful and even murderous attitude." That is engaging in a compassionate attitude.
Desmet is not Malone. You are fighting the wrong battle here, and you do so in a (sorry to say it) typical narcissistic way, using such outrageous examples, that there is no way to have an emotionally- mature discussion. It appears that your intention is to look, "smarter," not to find peace. That is a shame.
