Oppression is a many-headed monster; whose faces may appear kindly or seductive, but all of which stem from the same dangerous and hateful root.
This is the latest in a series of essays that IMHO do a really good job of linking the microcosm of domestic violence accountability to the macrocosm of authoritarian violence. You may want to go back and read the whole series. www.the-reframe.com/absolute-imm...
