Can you tell me if this sounds abusive? šŸ˜”
Vanity

Posted on 04/23/2021 4:43:30 AM PDT by tired&retired

My friendā€™s husband wonā€™t let her visit any friends or family. He has made her stop all contact with them unless itā€™s on the phone or computer. He reads, monitors and often deletes things on social media.

He makes her feel like sheā€™s going crazy for thinking heā€™s controlling, and that she is being ungrateful. (After all, heā€™s only doing this because of how much he cares about her.)

He doesnā€™t want her going to the gym anymore, so she doesnā€™t go. He also doesnā€™t let her go to work anymore (he told her to only rely on him for income and that he will take care of her).

Sheā€™s not really allowed to go out anymore, unless itā€™s for necessities, and when she does, he makes sure to have people guilt trip her about it and shame her for it.

He wants her to have this medical procedure done and tells her that if she does it, he will allow her more freedoms.

He constantly says heā€™s only doing all of this because he cares... he is just doing it for her own good.

Oh wait....did I say husband? I meant the government.

My bad.

You have been conditioned to be outraged if another person did this to their spouse, but be passive & compliant when it comes to our government.

Please wake up!šŸ˜”

Yes, and what is he afraid of, to want to control her like that?

Our “husband” must be terrified of us.

never trust a government that opens its border and distributes thousands of disease carrying invaders across its country during a so called global pandemic...

And if she gets out of line, he will send twenty heavily armed swat team members and frogmen to drag her out of her house, all the while having CNN filming it so it can be shown to all of her friends and neighbors.

A great thing to pass along! I was thinking, “What a controlling, manipulative, power freak”! And I was right.

For those in blue states, they are being held hostage and abused.

The Rat Voters enjoy this. The conservative folks need to leave.

Is her husband trying to take away her gun collection too (to continue the analogy)?

The government has morphed into the abusive spouse.

This is seriously brilliant! I started reading and could feel my blood pressure rising (thinking it was a wife). We are all the abused wives now... every single one of us.

Deep rooted insecurity, on a par with, oh, say Stasi Pelosi ...

Yep. Our own government is gaslighting us.

Best friend was in a relationship just like that for real.

Years later, in conversation about it, wondering what wouldā€™ve happened had it gone on- it didnā€™t - someone commented that sheā€™d be dead, one way or another.Changed her completely, though.
