Original Note:

This is the equivalent of an abuser blaming the victim for causing the abuser's violence. https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/02/uk/eight-arrested-uk-protest-stabbings-intl-hnk/index.html https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victim_blaming https://www.thehotline.org/resources/blame-shifting-and-minimizing-theres-no-excuse-for-abuse/
