(5/6) But society at large does not care about the nuances contained in the struggles of groups it is not directly connected to. Society is peace-loving at the expense of being justice-loving, and is content to let all the wickedness in the hearts of powerful people play with the powerless like toys as long as neither of them makes too much noise.
Society at large sees no difference between the anger of the abused and the anger of the abuser. The end result of anger is the same, that being the disruption of peace. That is the only problem.
As long as the abused receives the abuse humbly and politely, there is no problem. As long as the abuser metes out the abuse with a necktie and a smile, there is no problem.
But if the abused does complain? They are a problem. If they get angry? They're a trouble maker. If they speak up for themselves? They're 'difficult'. If they demand change? They're ingrates.
