The other people are our enemy - they are never going to understand us or be our ally because they ultimately approve of the practice of abuse; they think abusing people is the morally right thing to do and nothing will convince them otherwise. They believe we were abused because we deserved to be abused and they will fight to the death for this belief. The only answer is to hold them to their promise, because otherwise we will be exterminated.
Honestly TheUrOther, that is how you strongly "feel" but that is not all true. There HAS BEEN a growing effort towards awareness, there really has. As I have mentioned, changes happen slowly. If you continue along this vein of blaming and lashing out at others, you will do nothing to contribute to the solution.

Then there is no solution because the only thing that stops abuse is fighting back until the abusers are too crippled to abuse. Not fleeing. Not fawning. Not fainting. The only way to win is to beat our abusers until they are completely subjugated under our power.
This method has NEVER worked and only ends up not only costing thousands and thousands of lives but ends up causing a great deal of anger and emotional suffering where many people end up suffering from PTSD, this is not something new in humanity, what IS new is realizing how so many human beings did actually suffer from it which turned out affecting their children.

That's never going to happen. People don't want to know how we struggle, and will fight to the death to never know. To "normal" people we are worse than expendable and therefore nothing anyone says about us is valid and nothing anyone does will change their mind. That's not how people work.
Honestly, there is no such thing as "normal" to begin with. Also, while there are people who choose to remain ignorant, there are a growing number of people that are actually listening and trying to take steps towards making changes. Our new technology is actually beginning to help us start to understand how our human brains work, what areas in the brain are affected by trauma too. Truth is they are actually studying ptsd and trauma a lot right now because so many people are suffering from it that it's costing too much to address.
