Wife has been binging Law and Order SVU recently and I noticed there’s a lot of episodes where they have abused children turn into abusive adults, with the explanation that it’s a natural response of the brain trying to get in a position where it will never be vulnerable again.
No idea if that theory has any merit, but if true I wonder if that can also happen in a larger scale, to an entire society instead of just to an individual.
