Abused people tend to abuse people. Children that are constantly abused and look to the community around them and see that the community also encourages abuse will more likely think that abuse is okay until something happens that gives them better perspective. The only thing that comes from continuing to berate someone for their past is more negativity and hate. Instead of continuing a cycle that has been alive and thriving since before Rome fell, we should focus on change. Focus on changing ourselves constantly to be better, and focus on celebrating others as they also change themselves for the better. Continuing to drag someone for past actions they already understand were wrong helps no one.

Pacifism falls down because it assumes everyone wants to live peacefully. But some people are sadistic, malicious or predatory. You can't reason with that because they do want conflict. So if their attention turns to you, you need to make it very very inconvenient for them to continue with their bullshit.
