Sadly, abusive people are normalized and even praised among enough people still. The “tough coach and break their will to mold them into stronger people” BS. It’s pervasive in families, supernatural groups, sports, military and authoritarian leaning politics. It’s the same pattern of punch down on others, obey those above you and don’t question. Hurt others as you were hurt and call it normal. It’s tragic.

Yes, I can see your point and I agree. The amount of abuse that is normalized is staggering.
