You tell a person they are a helpless victim long enough they are going to believe it.

You almost understood the point people are making, but you fucked it up at the finish line.

The point people are making is "the person was in a shitty situation and our empathy for that should trump our desire to advise and help people out of shitty situations"

I don't agree to that.

Look I've said it a bunch of times, but helping people out of abusive scenarios has to be top priority, and you don't help people by insisting that it's too hard for them to leave or that they are helpless.

You can have empathy and still tell people to gtfo and call the police if you are being physically assaulted.

I'd so much rather be on that side then the side that makes excuses and let's it continue indefinitely because leaving is 'hard'.

Getting cancer treatment is hard. Doesn't mean I think people should die of cancer all the time just because I have empathy for their suffering and so I'm not going to dare tell them to go to a doctor because that's insensitive to their struggle.
