Violence conjugale: des mythes tenaces qui nuisent à la protection des femmes et des enfants victimes

« Ils avaient une relation de couple houleuse », « il n’allait pas bien », « le couple semblait pourtant parfait ». Les mythes qui entourent la violence conjugale ont la peau dure et empêchent souvent de voir les drapeaux rouges qui sont pourtant présents avant que ne surviennent les féminicides et les infanticides lorsque nous les regardons à travers le prisme de la violence conjugale. Alors que le bilan de victimes s’allonge, nous tenons à faire quelques rappels essentiels.

En 1995, le Québec s’est doté d’une politique qui définit clairement la violence conjugale comme « un moyen choisi pour dominer l’autre personne et affirmer son pouvoir sur elle ». Rien, si ce n’est la volonté de l’auteur, ne justifie le contrôle, la violence ou l’homicide. Quand un homme tue sa conjointe, son ex-conjointe ou ses enfants, ce n’est ni un « événement dépourvu de sens », ni un « drame familial ». Il s’agit de féminicides et d’infanticides, calculés et planifiés. Il ne s’agit pas d’un enjeu de santé mentale ou de consommation, il s’agit d’une prise de pouvoir ultime. Il n’a pas « perdu le contrôle », il a choisi la violence.

Pushing, always about pushing.
Pushing his weight off me too late,
exhausted, spent, his rage into me,
breaking, bruising, pain and shame
and devastation.

Him, a sudden force, pushing me into that
alley, so near my home I had no thought
of danger. So routine, my walk from the
subway after my work day, even though, late
Fall, well past twilight. I expected just another
evening of my uneventful life since I came to
this city to pursue my career.

I didn’t know the attacker who pushed me
from behind, covered my face with a huge,
hard hand so I wouldn’t scream, or see him,
too close to count on darkness. After,
released to drag myself home, I drank
sloppy mugs of red wine and cried, on my
way to blessed unconsciousness.

The morning alarm brought me back, to
understand my desperate need for
normalcy to push this whole melodramatic
mess out, out, out! Keep moving, one foot
at a time, eyes forward, focused on each
next chore. Somehow my face, my body,
lied for me, kept to my habitual script.

I very much didn’t want to talk about it,
to seek comforting or support. I wanted it
to go away — to never be.

I found a new route home, discovered
along it that I had become hypervigilant
while walking alone through city streets.
This city of strangers that I had hoped
would be my home had become a hostile
place to push away in self defense.

Pushed into an unwanted future where
the test comes up “Pregnant” after those
ugly symptoms could no longer be ignored.

Pushed now to find a way to take care
of my needs, to confront politics, that
whole divisive headache I had believed
not part of my life.

Suddenly I’ve become a victim of
multiple powerful men — the power
of physical force and the power of
unjust law pushed through by cynical,
deceitful misogynists using pumped
up hate to get ahead.

Much as I desperately try to normalize
these agonizing days, weeks, this
nightmare escalates. Those nonignorable
symptoms keep getting more and worse.

Pushed to accept, take in, this unacceptable
situation because these symptoms
seem serious. I have heard of high risk
pregnancies that require constant
monitoring, even sometimes termination
to save the vessel for future use. Surely I
would not be forced to continue having
this thing growing in me if it would kill me.

Barely holding my multiply suffering
body and mind together, I push myself
to take control and get to the closest ER.

Look! I yell into me, trying to center,
to find refuge in rationality. I am a
normal person, leading a narrow,
normal life. These health crisis
professionals will know what to do,
will make everything alright!

I have made it to what I have built up
in my anxious imagination as the blessed
temple of healing. Unfortunately, it is
more like Purgatory — the endless
waiting. I do understand the many more
needy of immediate care. I submerge
my fear and pain in silent singing, measured
breathing, hearing again my father’s wrath
when he had been drinking or sometimes
when he hadn’t but was feeling bitter honestly.

Family, memories, never consoling.
Certainly no one I can call for help or advice
or anything but judgement of an unkind kin.
I had been so happy to get so far away, to
reframe my life to be mine, hopeful with possibilities.

Yes, possibilities unanticipated. So many
sick days out, fallen (failing) performance,
there goes my once so bright, golden
promising job and its perks, like health insurance.

Pushed to realize my life is meaningless
beyond my private sphere. Pushed to understand
that my fragile forming friendships here are
far from strong enough to be burdened with
what has become my Truth.

At long last it is my turn to be seen. I have
become so weak, barely aware of being
lifted onto a gurney, hooked up to a fetal
monitor and IV, prodded, needle poked to
take my blood. The hands and voices are
concerned that the baby is in distress.
“Take it out of me!” I scream, crying snot
and tears and fear and rage. They inject a
fluid to induce labor, ready me to push
at their command.

Finally! It’s out, my nemesis expelled,
pushed from its unwelcome lodging.
I feel only pure exhaustion, running blood.
Fading, I hear from above:
“Yay! We saved the baby.”

Apparently too far gone for further
ministration, I am left with
the agony of life falling out of me. Faintly,
plaintively, I hear a sober retort:
“Yes, we saved this child to live, while it
does, with severe health issues requiring
extensive expensive care. It enters this
tragic life alone, parentless. Who will take
on this responsibility?
Letting the mother choose, to have the
chance to live, maybe have future healthy
children, would have been responsible, and humane.”

Fun Fact:

the evil one #Pelletier was named chief of the #Maui Poo #lice Department in 2021 after more than two decades working in Las Vegas. On Oct. 1, 2017, Pelletier was the incident commander of the deadliest single mass shooter incident in U.S. History #lasvegasshooting

And… Here we are again, ordering cops to facilitate death and destruction.

This is as #ugly as it gets…

It’s unimaginable to most #people how this can be true!

#Order-followers are the people that keep the current #system of #slavery in place; not the ruling class, not the political and not the so-called “elite.”

The people that keep the current slavery system in place, are the people who willfully follow orders. Which can be a difficult truth to learn, and to accept for a lot of people.

Following orders means doing what you are told to do, without judging for yourself whether or not the action you are being ordered to carry out is right or wrong behavior.

If an individual is following orders, that individual cannot possibly be exercising conscience, because by definition, exercising conscience means that one is willfully choosing for themselves right action over wrong action.

Following orders should never be seen as a virtue of any kind; if you are acting based solely on what someone has told you to do, there is no morality found in that, whatsoever. There is no such thing as morally following orders, the two terms are contradictory.

Those of us who have less conditioning – who don’t obey the chain of authority; who have less attachment to falsity – recognize that the so-called “authorities” in our way of life are ignorant and idiotic in their actions. We operate within the truth; a higher, authentic conscious awareness and self-development making us more capable of recognizing the authority of what is right, good, true and moral. The “authorities” and their supporters have false, low, immoral, unreal selves; unaware unconsciously living, doing wrongs as though they were right; or transforming what’s right into wrong.

#Conscience is the internal guiding system #humanity is blessed with having. It is literally your compass to living in the Right. Police and Military side swipe their consciences by following orders from their masters. Police make all kinds of justifications and excuses as to why they follow through with immoral orders but there is no legitimate excuse. Justifications for burying the conscience are null and void. As it is the conscience itself that will direct us toward what is moral, right, justified, and true. The Ancient Mystery traditions considered the conscience the home dwelling of the Higher self. To sell your soul means to disobey your conscience.

The #immorality of #government is obvious once we start being honest with ourselves. It’s very clear to see that not only politicians are not to be trusted but also the foundation of government its self even if the politicians were to be trusted is wrong. The foundation namely consists of violence, incarceration and theft. Theft is theft, also when government does it. When someone or some entity claims you MUST pay them money or you will be incarcerated and means you are a slave. Back in the days they took 100% of slaves labor now it’s about 30%. Even if it’s used for collective purposes doesn’t make it any less of an act of theft.

Government has a monopoly on violence. If you would act like the government you would be arrested. What grants government the right to be above the people and to rule other people. It’s an illusion of self proclaimed control. Just a group of thugs with their minions in blue who are the modern day houseslaves that rather enslave their own brothers and sisters for a paycheck than actually become conscious and start thinking for themselves. It’s really pathetic and pitiful. The level of unconsciousness is so severe that they think what they actually are doing is a virtue and they see themselves as brave people. Nothing could be further from the Truth. Following orders is not a virtue at all. It means you’re deeply asleep to a world of immorality and chaos.

Apart from the immoral actions they commit everyday by stealing from their brothers and sisters for their big boss government and incarcerating their own brothers and sisters for victimless crimes because some words of a piece of paper says so that has been written by their slave masters they are actually very much being mocked by the people behind the government who have set up this system of control. Many of the pole ice off eye seers are being covered in dark occult symbols.

Terrorists dressed in fancy clothes with pseudo weaponry forcing man made laws down people’s throats and stealing and harming people with #immoral #violence #all over the# world.

While Standing Beside Trump, Matt Gaetz Admits That Violence In DC Is The Plan

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) stood beside Trump on stage and said the plan was for Trump and his supporters to use force to bring change to DC.

Gaetz said, “We are having a great time at the fair. We love standing with you, but we know that only through force can we make any change in a corrupt town like Washington, DC. So to all of our friends here in Iowa, when you see them come for this man, they are coming for our movement, and they are coming for all of us.”

In #Mannheim, an automated #system reports hugs to the #police

Source: https://algorithmwatch.org/en/mannheim-system-reports-hugs-police/

Since 2018, the German research organization has been using Mannheim’s public surveillance cameras to try to train algorithms to spot “hitting, strangling, and kicking.” Initially, Müller says, officers would switch the “AI surveillance” feature off, because so many movements were flagged. Now, the algorithms are flagging hugs as "strangling". He adds that this is not necessarily a problem, because a hug can be non-consensual: "Imagine a stranger hugs you from behind,” he says. “Here, we need the police as the decision-maker to take a look.”

Call for Conscientious Objection by Mothers Against Violence in Israel

We, Mothers Against Violence, call on our children to refuse regular and reserve #army service in the occupied territories, for the following reasons
* Israeli law stipulates that the army’s presence in the occupied territories is “temporary”. The 56 years that have elapsed since the #occupation began, have made it, for all intents and purposes, “permanent”. Therefore, without an official government decision specifying otherwise, service in the occupied territories is #illegal.
* The current heads of the army and security services declared in June that settler #violence against Palestinians is “nationalist terrorism”. Despite this, army soldiers are still providing security for violent settlers. This puts them at risk of arrest and trial abroad, and #traumatizes them for life.
* The #anti-democratic legislation just passed by this government removes judicial checks and balances on government decisions, enabling the government to give the army unreasonable and illegal orders, and compounding the risk of international prosecution for the soldiers.

Its boldness is remarkable. By making an explicit public call for refusal, they have put themselves in danger of prosecution for sedition.

Témoignage video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhd7eMx4P7E

La justice reproche aux suspects d’avoir tiré au flash-ball à courte distance sur un jeune homme, Hedi, un employé de restauration de 21 ans. L’impact s’est logé dans la tempe. On leur reproche aussi de l’avoir roué de coups avant de le « laisser pour mort » dans la rue. La scène s’est produite lors des émeutes dans le centre-ville de la cité phocéenne, dans la nuit du 1er au 2 juillet, après la mort du jeune Nahel à Nanterre.

En réponse le gouvernement regarde ailleurs et laisse le #DGPN et le préfet de police de Paris s'exprimer pour soutenir les policiers agresseurs :

Soupçonnés de cette agression, quatre policiers ont été mis en examen et l’un d’eux placé en détention provisoire, suscitant la colère des syndicats. Le directeur général de la police nationale (DGPN), Frédéric Veaux, a déclenché une polémique en estimant, dans un entretien au Parisien que le placement en détention provisoire du policier incarcéré n’était pas nécessaire.

La lutte contre la violence sexiste et le retour de bâton machiste

Rares sont ceux qui abandonnent leurs privilèges sans résistance. Les progrès en matière de droits génèrent souvent des tensions qui conduisent parfois à des reculs : le progrès n’est pas linéaire, mais se présente sous la forme de deux pas en avant et d’un pas en arrière. Et dans la lutte contre les violences basées sur le genre, les résistances se sont sensiblement accrues.

Au cours des dix dernières années, près de 300 000 hommes ont été condamnés pour violence sexiste dans notre pays. Il s’agit d’un chiffre considérable, dû à une législation spécifique, dans un domaine où régnait auparavant une grande impunité, sauf dans les cas les plus graves. Il s’agit d’habitudes profondément ancrées dans certaines parties de notre société. De plus, ces comportements sont perpétrés dans des contextes où, historiquement, il y a eu peu de sensibilisation à l’action criminelle et trop de minimisation de la gravité de l’agression masculine.
