Hello! Thank you so much for this article; and the audio! I think I subscribed to you at some point; because I must have liked a comment you made on someone's Substack! I really enjoyed this; it helped me continue to figure out somewhat why I remain unable to communicate with some people; including a family member; as regards the felon and the ongoing fallout and chaos and awful ness of this administration. This: " That's just not happening, they say. It is happening. And then they pivot. They want to maintain this idea that, well, we have to maintain this dialogue. So it's just this coercive and abusive scenario. where they refuse to listen to you, but then they insist on retaining their ability to exert a hostile influence on you". That had such an impact on me! I am non confrontational; still working on being able to stand up for myself!!! I literally freeze! And they know it! They are bullies!! Not always; but when it comes to deep real issues; YES. Anyway. I will have to sleep on this; it's late and just wanted to say thank you. Much peace and love to you and your precious family. I look forward to reading more :-).
