They can easily share how doing what is normal in a daily routine can become a target issue from an abuser...such as the dinner was server warm not hot....next thing she knows, slap, kick, etc...

then, an hour later, the I'm sorry, tears, apology and empty promises...it was due something you did that made me do it ....blah, blah blah....it was not the victims fault...there is a cycle of this until a successful intervention...

The audience felt it world wide...


Stop minimizing our pain! Yes, I am a survivor of said abuse in my past...bringing up Ukraine is not related to this topic...you do us all a disservice which protects abusers...gives them permission to do it again.

Chris Rock was doing his job....an acceptable job as a comedian and everyone watching knew his style...Will Smith showed his true self....he is not really any different that Harvey Weinstein.... just the attack's are different...it's a control issue based in low self esteem of the offender.
