"If your husband relaxes while you work, systematically ignores your needs, demeans your body, emotionally abuses you, mistreats your children, or engages in other acts of abuse and unkindness, rest assured that he has swallowed patriarchal indoctrination whole. He will not change until he wants to—and as long as he is able to keep reaping the benefits of patriarchy, he won’t want to change."

Warning:
Excessively long post about abusive behaviours. Specifically: How and why abusers try to force their victims into compliance.

🔸️🔸️🔸️
Abusers employ tactics like minimization and blame-shifting, where they warn the victim to adjust their behaviour to avoid escalation ("You made me do this" or "If you acted right, this wouldn't happen").

The abuser flips the script to make the victim seem/feel responsible, deflecting guilt.

🔸️Veiled Threats and Control:Their phrasing often implies a warning—behave as I say or face punishment.

🔸️Victim-Blaming: By placing the onus on victims to "act" in ways the abuser prescribes, it shifts responsibility away from the perpetrator and onto the subjects.

🔸️Gaslighting: Abusers also gaslight victims by suggesting their reactions or actions provoked the abuse ("You're overreacting" or "No one will believe you").

In broader terms, it's akin to narratives in oppressive systems where marginalized groups are told to "behave" to avoid repercussions, rather than challenging the systems themselves.

🔸️Doubling Down on Objections: Abusers tend to escalate when confronted — refusing accountability and intensifying harm.

This reflects a mindset of dominance, where opposition is met with retaliation rather than reflection. ⬅️

"You made me do it/look what you made me do."
(Shifts fault for their behavior.)

"It's your fault I [drink/cheat/lose control]."
(Links their issues to the victim's actions.)

🔸️Minimizing Trauma:
Similar to victim-blaming, but slightly different, abusers often gaslight around the victim's distress ("don't cry") to reframe abuse as consensual or minor.

🔸️🔸️🔸️
This prioritizes control over empathy, much like sexual violence dynamics where the abuser demands a performance to ease their conscience.
🔸️🔸️🔸️

Abusers can be blatant and public about their behaviour for several interconnected psychological and strategic reasons.

While many abusers carefully hide their actions in private to maintain a facade (e.g., charming in public, cruel at home), ➡️ others operate openly or semi-openly—making threats, minimizing harm, or displaying control in ways that are visible to others. ⬅️

This isn't accidental; it's often deliberate and serves their goals.

🔸️When an abuser acts blatantly, it's a direct display of dominance: "I can do this openly, and nothing will stop me."

Public threats or veiled warnings send a clear message to the target: "Behave, or face consequences everyone can see." This amplifies intimidation because the victim knows others might witness it, yet the abuser often bets that bystanders won't intervene or will side with them.

🔸️In some cases, the public element normalizes the behavior or desensitizes observers over time, making escalation easier without immediate backlash.

🔸️Abusers who are blatant often feel untouchable. This can stem from: Social privilege (e.g., status, profession, gender dynamics, or community support) that shields them from accountability.

Past experiences where they've gotten away with similar actions without repercussions leads to bolder behaviour.

🔸️Institutional or cultural backing (e.g. online echo chambers, or environments where certain targets are dehumanized).

If the abuser has successfully discredited victims before or reframed criticism as "overreaction," they grow bolder. Blatant behaviour becomes a test of how far they can push without real pushback.

🔸️Many abusers exhibit narcissistic tendencies, where they crave attention, admiration, or validation. Public displays can serve as:

• Bragging or signaling superiority ("Look how I control the narrative/situation").

• Triangulation (pitting people against each other by making the abuse visible in a way that isolates the target further).

• Maintaining a heroic or authoritative image while subtly (or not-so-subtly) punishing those who challenge them.

➡️ In extreme cases, the abuser derives satisfaction from the fear or discomfort their actions provoke in others, viewing it as proof of their power. ⬅️

🔸️Going public first allows the abuser to shape the story before the victim can speak up. By posting warnings, framing their actions as "advice" or "concern," or doxxing under the guise of accountability, they position themselves as the reasonable party. This preempts accusations of wrongdoing and makes any pushback from the target look like retaliation or instability.

It's a form of reactive abuse setup in reverse: they provoke or threaten openly, then point to any response as justification for further harm.

Repeated public or semi-public acts can gradually normalize abusive tactics within a group or online community. What starts as a "joke" or "warning" escalates because fewer people call it out.

🔸️🔸️🔸️Over time, the abuser gains a reputation for being "tough" or "principled," while victims are painted as overly sensitive or deserving of scrutiny.🔸️🔸️🔸️

Then again, some abusers simply don't care about consequences because their empathy deficit makes others' suffering irrelevant. If the behavior aligns with their worldview (e.g., viewing certain groups as threats or inferior), they see no reason to hide it—they may even view openness as moral righteousness.

"Look back at the Epstein files and you can see the future," says Kate Manne. Specifically, you can see the future of what patriarchy has morphed into at this point in history, with the Epstein Class illustrating the shift:

"Girls and women are being treated as human and sexual property, yes, but of the form that may be rented out and traded rather than jealously safeguarded."
