I'm going to do you a favor and look past your comparison to slavery or blood sacrifices because it's 2019 and nearly worldwide everyone is in agreement both of those things are bad.
Haha, yeah. Being charitable with the reading "people are abusive because society is abusive" is maybe not an incorrect take per se, but it's a weird thing to say in a climate when so many people in power are so openly abusive and the rest of us are limited in our recourse to hold them accountable. We cannot escape the conclusion that society is abusive because abusive people have so thoroughly shaped it.
