The reason your grandmother didn’t leave your grandfather has LESS to do with some moral compass or love than you think. Until 1964 an employer could REFUSE to hire you because you were a WOMAN. Until 1974 REFUSING to sell a WOMAN a home was LEGAL … Until 1988 you could REFUSE to rent to a woman with CHILDREN. Contrary to what people believe, women didn’t stay because relationships were better, they stayed because SOCIETY wasn’t designed for their independence.

“This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore. A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong.
And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want.”
- Hannah Arendt
