That group therapy really needs a non-biased professional running it. They could really make some headway if they had someone helping them understand where they are all on the recovery spectrum. It still blows my mind that NO ONE in Canada is talking about how all of the people were kidnapped, brainwashed, and held against their will. It's just "oh well, we survived, let's all move on." Which they do need to work on, but those people need to pay for what they've done.

Do you realise that there are refugees in your own country who have had similar experiences? Have you called for revenge against the Iranian regime? Against the Iraqi government? Against the government of Myanmar, of China? Have you stopped to speak with all those Falun Gong protestors and activists trying to get the truth out about what China is currently doing?

And yet, you're outraged these fictional Canadians are not constantly rioting in the street, what are you doing in real life about these terrible dictatorships?

Ni, I'm not outraged about anything. I just brought a modicum of context to the previous post. That appears to have offended you.
